David Pierpoint, CEO at The Retrofit Academy, said, “The Retrofit Academy Awards were established to reward high quality retrofitting across the market and highlight the fantastic work by retrofitters and exemplary individual projects. It’s also a great way to see how the industry has progressed, and to bring together organisations, stakeholders, and individuals from across the sector. It’s no easy task to tackle the challenges that face this industry so celebrating those who have done a marvellous job at leading the way and showcasing progress that is being made across the country is important.”
