  • The director of the National Warm Homes Council has warned that the government is currently not on track to meet its target on insulating homes.

The article from PoliticsHome discusses the UK government's progress on its commitment to improve home energy efficiency as part of its net zero emissions target by 2050. Industry leaders and experts have expressed concerns that the government is not on track to meet its goal of upgrading all homes to at least an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating of C by 2035. Key points include the slow pace of retrofitting homes, the lack of clear policy direction, and insufficient funding for energy efficiency measures. There's also mention of the potential economic benefits of a robust retrofit program, including job creation and reduced energy bills for households. Critics argue that without significant policy changes and increased investment, the UK risks missing its climate targets and failing to provide adequate support for vulnerable households facing fuel poverty.
