To meet the UK’s net zero ambitions we need a sustained retrofit programme to reduce energy consumption, improve thermal performance and decrease the carbon impact of our buildings. Renewable technologies will play a critical role in addressing this challenge – but it can sometimes be difficult for clients when comparing and procuring different solutions.
That’s where frameworks help.
In the realm of energy efficiency and building standards in the UK, PAS 2030 and PAS 2035 are critical. They provide guidelines and requirements for the installation of energy efficiency measures and the retrofit of buildings.
We take a look into the accreditation and its importance in the retrofit journey.
Local authorities and housing associations are responsible for 6.3 million public sector buildings, and face increasing pressure to improve their existing stock by retrofit and decarbonisation to both meet the environmental targets, and support tenants through the energy and fuel crisis.
