Are SHDF projects under PAS2035:2019 still valid after the changes to PAS2035:2023?
Yes, all SHDF projects carried out under PAS2035:2019 remain valid as long as the assessments have been preloaded into Trustmark before the end of March 2025.
Is PAS2035:2023 mandatory for all retrofit projects?
Yes, PAS2035:2023 is a mandatory standard for retrofit projects in the UK that aim to receive public funding or need to meet specific energy performance requirements under government regulations.
What are the key changes in PAS2035:2023 compared to the previous version?
PAS2035:2023 introduces new requirements for risk management, quality control, and energy performance assessments. It emphasises a more holistic approach to retrofitting, including considerations for occupant needs and long-term sustainability.
What does Retrofit mean?
The UK Government has identified the retrofit of buildings as a key lever in their low carbon strategy to achieve 68% carbon reduction by 2030. All affordable homes will be required to achieve a minimum EPC of C by 2030. All ECO funded refurbishment projects are required to achieve full compliance with PAS 2035:2019 from July 2021 with a 20% funding uplift for projects that comply before the deadline.
PAS 2035:2019 (Specification for the Energy Retrofit of Domestic Buildings) is revolutionising the refurbishment of buildings. Over the last 30 years energy efficiency programmes have focussed on single measures (i.e.: cavity wall insulation or window replacement, etc.) but all future programmes now require a holistic solution designed to suit the specific building type.
To comply with PAS 2035, a qualified Retrofit Coordinator must be employed to provide a 'Whole House Retrofit' solution.
