Compliance in practice: making sense of PAS standards

Introduction

Host Jonathan Newton speaks with Nathaniel Butters and Rory Nixon from ECO Serv to demystify one of the most important topics in the retrofit sector today: PAS 2030 and PAS 2035 compliance.

Nathaniel and Rory share insights from more than a decade in the energy efficiency and retrofit space, explaining how PAS standards were introduced to improve quality, reduce risk and ensure whole-house, long-term thinking in home energy upgrades. They discuss the growing complexity of compliance, the challenges faced by housing associations and contractors, and the practical steps organisations can take to embed good practice.
