Future of heating
The government and industry are focussed on the challenge of improving the energy efficiency of the UK's housing stock. According to the Energy Saving Trust, the UK's 30 million homes account for more than 21 per cent of the country's total carbon emissions. The Future Homes Standard, announced in January this year, announced significant funding for renewable energy and home upgrades. With so much low carbon technology available it is now more crucial that installers invest in upskilling and increasing their knowledge. From solar PV and energy storage systems to ground and air source heat pumps, there's something to suit every homeowner and help them address soaring energy costs in a more sustainable way. This session looks at the future of heating in the UK, including the technology, funding and training options available for tradespeople.
