Heat Network Skills Review
Description
This BEIS study (2020) demonstrates the following results: The industry is soon to undergo a surge in demand for skills, as it seeks to support the UK reach its 2050 carbon targets. Skills are unlikely to keep pace with this growing demand, with immediate skills gaps in project management and key technical roles. We, therefore, recommend the creation of an industry-led skills partnership to oversee the development of skills in the industry. With a remit to: introduce more bespoke standards and accreditation; revise and adapt vocational qualifications and degrees; facilitate the transfer of workers from elsewhere into the industry; reach out to a younger and more diverse talent pool; collect and track workforce data.
