Who We’ve Worked With

At its core, property asset management is the strategic oversight and optimisation of a property or portfolio to maximise its value, performance, and return whether that’s financial, functional, or social. As specialists in home energy and retrofit, we ensure retrofit doesn’t sit outside of asset management, it is asset management. We ensure retrofit reframes energy inefficiency across property as an asset liability, and improvements as value creation.

Property management ensures your assets run day to day successfully. Asset management ensures optimising the long term performance and strategic direction of your asset portfolio over time. At Cyd Innovation, we operate across both levels. We help you understand what your assets are worth, what they cost to run, and where the risks and opportunities lie. Retrofit sits at the heart of this, not as a standalone project, but as a strategic asset management decision. Improving the energy performance of your portfolio reduces long-term liability, protects asset value against tightening regulations, and delivers measurable savings across your estate. We translate retrofit from a technical requirement into a commercially sound investment decision.

PAS 2035 is the UK’s publicly available specification for retrofitting domestic buildings published by the British Standards Institution (BSI) in 2019 and updated in 2023. It sets out the entire process, roles, and standards that must be followed when improving the energy performance of existing homes.
