Abstract

Currently, there are circa 2,000 properties across the UK that are ‘off-grid’, meaning they are without access to both electricity and gas mains / grid connections. A further 4.3 million UK domestic properties are off the mains gas grid (BEIS, 2022d). A range of socio-economic challenges are faced by people living ‘off-grid’, including being at greater risk of fuel poverty, and struggling to adequately heat their homes. This evidence review forms part of a wider research project about the realities and practicalities of decarbonising off grid properties. It aims to understand what is currently known about approaches to decarbonising (or improving the energy performance of) homes that are completely or partially off grid.
