The building-energy gap means that new and retrofitted efficient buildings do not exhibit much of the energy savings expected of them once their occupants move in. Part of decarbonising the built environment will involve behaviour change and education for occupants, owners, designers and policymakers. The technologies for a sustainable built environment are already available. They need to be deployed en masse and fully exploited by building users for best emissions reduction outcomes
