London Borough of Bromley: housing context
Outer-London suburban with a higher owner-occupier mix; ECO4 demand is concentrated in Penge and Mottingham wards rather than the borough average.
LA Flex status
LA Flex declared
The London Borough of Bromley housing landscape is medium-priority for ECO4 retrofit work. The combination of 73% pre-1980 housing stock and 10% household fuel poverty creates medium demand for funded retrofit interventions.
