The decarbonisation/eco industry is growing.
The reason for this is the huge need for the retrofit of energy measures in existing building stock. With a target of net zero by 2050 there is a commitment to grow the skills and compliance within organisations to help meet the demand.
There are a number of eco and green home funding schemes that have been launched by the government in the past and more recently.
Current funding, such as Eco3 are in place as part of the government’s objective to make achieve net zero.
In order for a homeowner to benefit under these schemes, the installer they use has to be listed as a Green Deal Installer and registered with TrustMark and to achieve this PAS 2030 or MSC (depending on the measure they are installing) certification is needed.
This protects the homeowner and ensures installations achieve what they are meant to – a more energy efficient home.
To gain PAS 2030 certification there is usually some work to do to get the installer organisation ready to gain certification.
As this can be a complex task, Eco Academy was launched in order to help installation companies get to a place quickly where they are ready for certification.
