NAPIT recently welcomed Steve Yemm, MP for Mansfield, to their headquarters in Pleasley near Mansfield to demonstrate how we are training and accrediting the installers needed for the transition to Net Zero.
NAPIT is based on the Pleasley Vale Business Park and the Parliamentary boundary between the Mansfield and Pleasley constituencies runs through the site.
Around 150 staff are based on site, which also hosts a centre of excellence for low carbon technologies, offering a variety of low carbon training courses, including solar PV, heat pumps, energy storage and electric vehicles.
Frank Bertie, Managing Director said “We are grateful to Mr Yemm for taking the time to come and visit us so soon after the election.
“The Government has already made a number of announcements around low carbon technology and the transition to Net Zero, expansion of house building and the skills agenda.
“All of those policy areas will require a large number of highly skilled, competent installers to fit the heat pumps, solar panels and ev chargers required.
“We were delighted to show Mr Yemm around our site and explain how NAPIT and its members will be key to ensuring there are sufficient skilled installers in the electrical, heating, plumbing, ventilation, microgeneration and building fabric trades.”
Steve Yemm MP said: “The Government will get Britain building again and take early action to meet our Net Zero targets.
“This will create opportunities for the renewable led skilled workforce in Mansfield and across the country to develop and grow with highly skilled jobs and careers for electricians and heating engineers so I was delighted to hear about the work that NAPIT is doing.”
