Abstract
The promotion of low-carbon home retrofitting among homeowners is widely recognised as an important strategy to reduce operational energy use in dwellings and mitigate climate change. Building research and policy have traditionally treated the decisions that homeowners make with regard to low-carbon retrofit as isolated events[1]. Nevertheless, research on domestic retrofit shows that retrofit decisions are often spread over lengthy periods of time[2]. Driven by evidence on the temporal nature of retrofit decisions, this study adopts a process research strategy[3] to review and produce a metasynthesis of evidence for homeowner retrofitting decisions available in the literature.
