The Welsh Government will use this research to further understand the barriers and opportunities that are present in the development of low carbon housing.The Welsh Government wishes to commission an experienced contractor to undertake research into the construction lessons learned from all schemes funded in year 2 of the Innovative Housing Programme (IHP).The Innovative Housing Programme was first announced in February 2017 by the then Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Children and has since been developed to support the development of new and innovative approaches to delivering housing in Wales.The IHP has a fund of GBP 155m over the years 2017/18 to 2020/21 to support schemes to meet a target of 2,000 affordable homes. This programme forms an important part of the Welsh Government's overall target for 20,000 new low carbon homes to be built by 2026.The Programme seeks to support innovation in a broad context, covering construction techniques, delivery pathways and housing types across all tenures, with the exception of the refurbishment of existing residential dwellings.In Year One (2017-18), the IHP was open to Registered Social Landlords (RSLs) and Local Housing Associations (LHAs), including local authority owned housing companies.
