Episode 171 of the Common Weal Policy Podcast
You can download the episode directly here.
This week, Craig talks to Tom Nockolds, member of Common Weal's Energy Working Group and co-founder of Loco Home, a community-led, not-for-profit, retrofitting strategy company who work with communities and suppliers to help advise and design home retrofit plans. They discuss the scale of the retrofitting challenge and why community-level actions will deliver better and faster results than simply mandating that individuals must retrofit their homes on their own.
More details about Loco Homes can be found on their website here: https://locohome.coop
