South West Regional Net Zero Buildings Retrofit Skills Plan

The SWNZH is made up of 7 LEP areas with over 40 Local Authorities of which most of the Local Authorities have declared Climate Emergencies to attain Net Zero by 2030. The Government and local authorities (LAs) and in some cases LEPs have either set out or are in the process of finalising their climate/carbon plans with which to guide their and their stakeholders' delivery over the coming years. One of the critical issues for all parties concerned is the decarbonisation of domestic buildings through retrofitting them and improving their energy efficiency. Both national and regional policy references the importance of green jobs and the role they will play in delivering net zero
