Retrofitting existing residential buildings presents a feasible approach to improving energy efficiency. Therefore, recognising the critical success factors (CSFs) for building retrofitting (BER) has remained significant topic in this climate change era. However, given fragmented nature of past findings, study reviewed studies on CSFs BER. Utilising Arksey and O’Malley’s framework, 138 were initially examined, with 33 meeting inclusion criteria synthesised according PRISMA-ScR guidelines. The review started bibliometric analysis, including publication trends, types, geographical focus, etc., found growing interest amongst authors China, Germany, Saudi Arabia, UK, Europe. scoping results highlight seven overarching themes CSFs: project-, contract-, stakeholder-, team-, financial-, regulation-, material/technology-related. Notably, most emphasised across financial-related CSFs. A further included revealed that dominant methods used factor regression social network analysis (SNA), structural equation modelling (SEM). This provides valuable insights regulatory bodies, construction professionals, project managers, homeowners seeking develop customised solutions, advancing BER research practice. Further is suggested understand how combinations can drive varied contexts.
