In the first episode of Futurebuild’s new Retrofit Series, host Martin Hurn speaks with Simon Kemp, Growth and Innovation Director at Warmworks, about what it really takes to scale high-quality retrofit across the UK. Drawing on Scotland’s national programmes, Simon shares lessons England can learn to close funding and policy gaps while tackling fuel poverty and cutting carbon.
They explore the need for a dual-track retrofit approach, the challenges of PAS2035, quality assurance, and the green skills shortage—as well as emerging technologies like heat pumps and infrared heating. From local delivery to national ambition, this episode offers practical insight for anyone involved in retrofit.
