Maximising Wave 3 Funding Success: How Real-Time Data Drives Better Retrofit Outcomes
Executive Summary
Housing providers who have applied for Wave 3 funding will soon receive their allocations, with project delivery commencing April 2025.
As organisations prepare to implement ambitious retrofit programmes, the ability to monitor, measure and optimise these improvements becomes critical. This article explores how IoT-enabled monitoring solutions can help housing providers maximise their Wave 3 investment, ensure successful project delivery, and create lasting benefits for residents through data-driven decision making.
With Wave 3 funding decisions imminent and grant claims set to begin from 1st April 2025, successful housing providers need to prepare for effective project delivery. As organisations gear up to implement their retrofit strategies, the role of data-driven decision making becomes crucial.
Making Every Pound Count
For housing providers awaiting their Wave 3 allocation, preparation is key. Vericon Systems’ IoT solutions ensure that once funding is received, every pound delivers maximum impact through precise monitoring and optimisation.
Smart Solutions for Project Success
Our comprehensive monitoring suite includes:
- Smart Heating Analytics: Our Heating and Environmental Pack combines boiler/ASHP monitoring with environmental sensors, tracking both system performance and living conditions.
- Energy Intelligence: PowerSense delivers granular energy consumption data, helping quantify retrofit savings in real terms.
- Environmental Monitoring: The Surveyor Cube provides room-by-room insights into temperature and humidity, protecting both buildings and residents
- Unified Analytics: Our Connect platform turns raw data into actionable insights, helping optimise retrofit strategies and maintain performance.
Maximising Project Outcomes
With project delivery running until September 2028, housing providers need robust monitoring systems to track and demonstrate success.
Vericon’s solutions provide the comprehensive data needed to:
- Document baseline performance before works begin
- Track improvements throughout the retrofit process
- Demonstrate successful outcomes to stakeholders
- Build evidence for future funding rounds
Beyond Monitoring: Creating Lasting Impact
The journey to better social housing doesn’t end with installation. Our systems continue delivering value long after retrofits are complete, helping providers:
- Fine-tune heating systems for maximum efficiency
- Identify properties at risk of damp and mould
- Support residents in reducing energy costs
- Plan maintenance proactively rather than reactively
Preparing for Success
With £1.29 billion allocated for Wave 3 projects, successful housing providers need to ensure their delivery strategies are robust and data-driven. Vericon’s monitoring solutions help organisations maximise the impact of their funding allocation while delivering lasting benefits to residents.

Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund Wave 2.1
Making the Most of the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund Wave 2.1
First, we want to congratulate everyone who secured SHDF Wave 2.1 funding! Now, let’s explore how Vericon Systems can help you maximise this opportunity to transform your social housing properties.
How Vericon Systems Transforms Social Housing
Our innovative solutions directly support your decarbonisation goals. Most importantly, we help you boost energy efficiency, upgrade homes, cut greenhouse gas emissions, and enhance tenant living conditions.
Smart Solutions for Better Results
Powerful Energy Monitoring
Our smart monitoring systems give you clear insights into energy usage. As a result, you can spot opportunities to reduce consumption at both individual properties and across your entire portfolio.
Intelligent Building Controls
First off, our smart thermostat works with our BCM to cut energy bills by up to 22%. Moreover, we’ve developed specific modulation curves for all boiler types. Therefore, when combined with our universal thermostat, you can efficiently control any connected boiler.
Additionally, our cloud-connected devices constantly track your assets. Subsequently, our system analyses this data to alert you about issues and identify concerning trends before they become problems.
Effective Retrofitting Solutions
Our products excel at monitoring buildings before and after upgrades. Consequently, you can measure exact improvements in energy consumption and emissions.
To modernise properties effectively, we recommend installing IoT temperature sensors, humidity monitors, and boiler tracking equipment. Thanks to our expertise in retrofitting, you’ll make smart upgrade decisions based on solid data.
Want to track improvement? Simply install our BCM, Multidot, or Cube devices before starting retrofit work. Then, these sensors will continuously monitor temperature and humidity in each room. Best of all, you can access this data through our user-friendly online portal.
Data-Driven Success
Our robust analytics help you make smarter decisions about maintenance and energy management. Thus, you can strategically use your SHDF Wave 2.1 funding where it matters most.
Tackling Fuel Poverty
Our cutting-edge solutions actively identify residents struggling with fuel poverty. Through advanced monitoring and analytics, we quickly spot unusual heating patterns or high energy use. In turn, this enables you to support vulnerable residents promptly and effectively.
