Abstract
This Research Opportunities Report specifically identifies the challenges and R&D opportunities to innovations that support the industrialization of whole building retrofits and rapid growth of low carbon new construction. The content relates to the industrialization of processes associated with new building construction and renovation and how technology innovation supports process enhancement. Table E.1 shows the primary focus areas of this report to further industrialize related innovations - indutrialization of envelope improvements and equipment installation. This report cross-applies innovations in both the new and existing building sectors with a focus on widescale applicability. Installation flexibility is key to commoditizing solutions that are applicable for a wide variety of buildings and to help simplify decarbonization processes for the workforce.
