What is Retrofit?
Retrofit refers to any improvement work on an existing building to improve its energy efficiency, making them easier to heat, able to retain that heat for longer, and replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy.
The UK is undergoing a retrofit revolution to meet its target of reaching Net Zero emissions by 2050 and raise the energy efficiency of UK homes by 2035.
Retrofit is a new and exciting sector of the economy that could offer rewarding careers for thousands of people. Employers in the retrofit sector include local authorities, housing associations, installers, energy companies, contractors and sub-contractors. Many people are also self-employed or set up their own businesses.
