Greenworkx

Have you started thinking about your workforce and skills requirements for your 2025 retrofit projects? 🤔 Warm Homes funding outcomes are set to be confirmed in late Jan, but we’re already working with employers who want to get ahead by securing the best emerging retrofit talent before they get snapped up or become too expensive. 🤝 These forward-thinking employers know that new DEAs and RAs can quickly get the qualifications and competence they need. Greenworkx's training pathway gives you confidence that new hires (like Arinze, pictured with all the surveys he completed in his first six months!) will have the right skills, qualifications and retrofit resources to hit the ground running when they join your team. ⚡️ ️We're also providing new opportunities for our candidates to put their training into practice and get hands-on experience… Keep your eyes peeled for an announcement in the new year! 👀 Correct Contract Services EEC Energy Efficiency Consultants The Installation Assurance Authority (The IAA) Domna (formerly Hestia) The Warmfront Team LTD Making Energy Greener  #WarmHousePlan #ECO4 #GBIS #EnergyEfficiency #Retrofit #FuelPoverty #WarmHomesLocalGrant #WarmHomes

Over the last four years, the number of fuel poor households in England has doubled from 4.3 million to a staggering 8.9 million ❗️ Energy Advisors provide much-needed support to people facing fuel poverty in their local communities, helping them to improve energy efficiency at home and reduce their fuel bills. 🏡 We're very proud of the impact that our Energy Advisor Academy has had in its first year: we've supported 75 people into Energy Advisor qualifications and 22 people into jobs so far! 🎉 Reach out if you’d like to learn more about how to get involved in the Energy Advisor Academy, or if you’re looking for some Energy Advisors in 2025. 👋 Thanks to Caroline Joseph, Lorraine Gumbs, Sharon Johnson and the whole team at AgilityEco for being our wonderful partners over the last year! Hundreds more Energy Advisors will be needed over the next few years to support consumers, so we're looking forward to working together on scaling our Energy Advisor Academy in 2025. 🙌🏽 Ofgem #EnergyEfficiency #WarmHomes #FuelPoverty #EnergyAdvice #EnergyAdvisors #ECO4 #LEAP #WarmHomeDiscount #WarmHomesLocalGrant

20 year anniversaries are usually a cause for celebration… But the British Gas Energy Trust’s 20 year anniversary event at the House of Commons last week was a sombre reminder of the fact that fuel poverty now is worse than ever, with 9 million UK households experiencing it this year❗️ As Miatta Fahnbulleh MP (Minister for Energy Consumers) remarked at the event, the cost of living crisis has been brought about by an over reliance on fossil fuels and negligence in upgrading housing stock, leaving people exposed to price volatility. But energy should not be a luxury. 🏡 Greenworkx is supporting people into energy efficiency and retrofit training and jobs, in order to help tackle the root causes of fuel poverty. ⚡️ But we also need an acceleration in collaboration across the industry, to support the UK Government’s commitment to secure and affordable energy, and homes that are warm and cheap to run (as set out in the Warm Homes Plan, alongside the continuation of the Warm Home Discount Scheme and new winter support packages with energy companies). 🤝 AgilityEco National Energy Action (NEA) Energy Trust® Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (ESNZ) #EnergyEfficiency #WarmHomes #FuelPoverty #EnergyAdvice #EnergyAdvisors #ECO4 #LEAP #WarmHomeDiscount #WarmHomesLocalGrant

So you’ve applied for Warm Homes funding, or won a new retrofit project… But do you have the retrofit skills in your team to deliver the work? 🤔 The Installation Assurance Authority (The IAA) has brought the industry together at their annual conference to have a timely discussion about the direction of travel for energy efficiency and retrofit. We know that retrofit skills are going to be critical for all the work needed to make our homes and buildings warmer and more energy efficient. 🏡 Join us at 12-1pm GMT on Friday 6 December for a free webinar hosted by Retrofit Information, Support and Expertise (RISE), where our CEO Mat Ilic will share approaches for building on retrofit skills in your team!

We’re looking forward to connecting with partners old and new at The Installation Assurance Authority (The IAA) Federation’s annual conference this Thursday. It’s an important opportunity to bring together the industry as it gears up for the Warm Homes Plan, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme extension, and everything ECO4 and GBIS may bring in 2025. 🏡 Mat Ilic and Elliott Grover will be making sure that the need for a skilled trade workforce is served as the conference underlines the direction of travel for energy efficiency and retrofit. 👩🔧 Let us know if you’re going to be there too! ⚡️ Nigel Donohue LLB first honours Tom Cheetham Caroline Kuchta tony hardiman MBE Miatta Fahnbulleh Sara Edmonds Adam Scorer National Energy Action (NEA) Department for Energy Security and Net Zero Making Energy Greener Dyson Energy Services part of the Sureserve Group Eco Approach InstaGroup Ltd #IAAF #IAAFConference #WarmHousePlan #ECO4 #GBIS #EnergyEfficiency #Retrofit #FuelPoverty

A day in Manchester at the Low Carbon Homes event and it’s great to talk to one of our partners Greenworkx and Elliott Grover Mat Ilic and Lucy Adeniji about working together to deliver better social value outcomes and more skills and capability into the retrofit and energy advice sector. #networking #socialvalue #skillsdevelopment #energyefficiency #agilityeco

The Home Upgrade Show in Manchester offered a fantastic platform for collaboration and knowledge sharing - our team Elliott Grover and Lucy Adeniji came away feeling inspired. 🌱 Here's what Lucy had to say: 'It’s great to be in an industry where we’re all working towards a collective goal of delivering decarbonisation. Our workshop on future green skills highlighted the need for hands-on, holistic retrofit training and the importance of career progression, inclusivity, and wellbeing. 🌟 A big thank you to Graham Lock and the Low Carbon Homes team for organising! We were delighted to connect with Warm Homes, Energy Innovation Agency, The Retrofit Hub, People Powered Retrofit, and Home Energy Yorkshire.' #retrofit #greenjobs #greenskills
