Energy Efficiency Retrofitting

Energy Efficiency Retrofitting is a systematic intervention in existing building energy systems that improves energy performance through the implementation of upgraded technologies, optimized control strategies, or enhanced building envelope components, distinguishing it from new construction or operational adjustments by its focus on holistic, retrofit-based enhancements to reduce energy consumption and improve system efficacy.
