Abstract
The UK health sector has one of the highest energy consumption levels among nondomestic buildings, with hospitals showing particularly high energy use and emissions due to intensive operations. NHS Trust hospitals are diverse in design and function, complicating energy efficiency efforts across the entire stock. With a netzero target by 2040, sustainable solutions are critical for existing facilities. This study presents an approach to optimise refurbishment scenarios for energy, carbon and cost reduction, using a deep-plan tower hospital typology, known for high energy consumption, as a case study. Through multi-criteria decision analysis, stakeholders participate in optimizing solutions tailored to building needs. Results show that stakeholder engagement in optimisation process supports robust, balanced outcomes in carbon reduction, energy and cost-efficiency.
