  1. I don’t think #ECO4 was responsibly managed by the energy companies…that was largely due to the #Tories leaving them to their own devices.

    But the #retrofit work cannot overnight be picked up by other schemes.

    #DESNZ thinks it can suddenly offer a tonne of money to local authorities and housing associations (previously linked to ECO4) with a ridiculous short window to spend it.

    #Labour are showing they have no idea how to manage large scale projects and budgets.

  2. Even so, I saw first hand the potential for poor design, installation and regulatory compliance.

    The industry is very fragmented and too much trust was put in consultants to have oversight of projects for #DESNZ. These consultants rarely had to go to site and had no trade/on the tools knowledge of #retrofit installation.

    Subcontracting is another big issue. The accreditations might have been held by a ‘principal installer’ but that was meaningless in terms of who did the actual work.

  3. Ich wünsche ein innovatives #ComputerSimulationsSpiel das nicht nur Auszubildene am Bau, #Architekten, #Häuslebauer u.a. von der #Qualität, aber auf Dauer auch von der #Sparsamkeit von #energieeffiziente #Passivhaus o.
