Focus on retrofit to get net zero back on track, says BESA

The government should accelerate plans to retrofit buildings to get faltering net zero progress back on target, according to the Building Engineering Services Association (BESA).
Responding to last week’s damning report from the Climate Change Committee (CCC), the Association said the government still had several policy levers it could pull and that the built environment – as the UK’s second largest carbon emitter behind transport – should be a priority.
