As part of The Regenda Group, Ecogee is delivering over £700k of energy‑efficiency works at Torentum Court, Regenda Homes’ Independent Living Scheme in Fleetwood.

What are energy efficiency works? 

There are things that can make your home keep the heat in better and make it cheaper to heat your home. These are things like: 

• External wall insulation 

• Loft insulation  

• Solar panels 

• Upgrading ventilation

What work are we doing at Torentum? 

All homes have an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) to say how energy efficient that property is. All homes are graded from EPC A (the best) to EPC G (the worst.) The EPC rating of a home is measured every 10 years, or at the start of every new tenancy.  

Before we started the work, homes at Torentum Court were EPC D.  

Any EPC lower than an EPC C means that a home is not energy or cost efficient – so you’re spending a lot of money on heating and energy that doesn’t keep the home warm.  

At Torentum, we’re working to improve the efficiency of the homes by: 

• Installing solar panels 

• Installing new loft insulation  

• Upgrading ventilation

We’ve been on site since the end of August installing 132 solar panels at the scheme. Whilst completing the energy efficiency work, we have also upgraded other elements of the scheme as part of Regenda Homes’ 2-year investment plan for the scheme including: 

• Replacing the roof  

• Replacing all fencing 

• Installing new communal doors 

• Replacing the cladding 

• Upgrading the telecare system and door entry access 

• Refreshing internal and external decoration 

• Removed redundant garages and bin stores

What do Regenda Homes’ residents say? 

Mrs Goulding told us: 

“The work has been absolutely fine, we’ve had no issues with anything. My home is already warmer and quieter.” 

The energy efficiency improvements are part funded by Warm Homes: Local Grant in collaboration with Liverpool City Region Combined Authority.  

All energy efficiency work at Torentum will be finished in December 2025 and following the work, Regenda Homes will be completing refresh of the communal lounge and hallways.
