Decarbonisation, retrofit and renewable energy services
ODS’ experienced Property Services team improves building energy efficiency and performance through targeted retrofits, upgrades and modifications. We help homes and businesses across Oxfordshire cut carbon emissions, reduce energy costs and enhance overall building performance.
Retrofitting keeps heating costs down in winter and helps maintain cooler indoor temperatures in warmer weather, reducing energy use and lowering the carbon impact of buildings. These fabric‑first improvements also ensure renewable systems perform at their best. Alongside retrofit measures, we install high‑quality renewable energy solutions including solar PV, battery storage, air source heat pumps and EV charging. Our locally based engineers provide expert design, installation and support to ensure every system operates reliably.
Renewable energy services
ODS offers a complete range of renewable technologies to help homes and businesses transition to cleaner, more efficient energy. Our MCS‑certified engineers provide expert design, installation and support across four key areas:
Solar PV — Generates clean electricity and reduces reliance on the grid.
Air Source Heat Pumps — Efficient, low‑carbon heating for homes and businesses.
Battery Storage - Stores excess solar energy.
EV Charging — Convenient, reliable charging solutions for electric vehicles at home or work.
This whole‑home approach ensures renewable systems work seamlessly alongside fabric‑first retrofit measures for maximum efficiency and long‑term performance.

What does retrofitting involve?
Retrofitting upgrades existing buildings to improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions. It focuses on adding modern solutions, such as enhanced insulation and energy‑efficient systems, to cut energy use and lower environmental impact without the need for a full rebuild. These fabric‑first measures create the ideal foundation for integrating renewable energy technologies.
What is the UK’s policy on retrofitting and decarbonisation?
In November 2020, the UK government committed £3.8 billion to the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund (SHDF). This fund supports housing providers in upgrading their properties to achieve EPC C energy-efficiency standards by 2030.
The SHDF aims to deliver warmer, more efficient homes, lowering carbon emissions and energy costs, tackling fuel poverty, and promoting employment in the green energy sector, including the installation of renewable technologies such as solar PV and air source heat pumps.
ODS has proven experience in delivering SHDF programmes of work for social housing providers, as well as projects in the able-to-pay market.
