BEFS Bulletin 360: An eye to the future – climate change, retrofit, and data

BEFS NEWS

Scotland’s Regeneration Forum (SURF) has announced the 2024 shortlist for the prestigious SURF Award national awards scheme, which showcases success in responding to regeneration challenges in communities across Scotland. Applications from Orkney to Dumfries and Galloway were whittled down to 15 projects by SURF’s panel of judges.

The Scotland Loves Local Awards finalists for Town of the Year have also been announced. Winners of these awards – alongside those for Place Leader of the Year and regional High Street Hero awards – will be announced in October.

Congratulations to all on the shortlist for both awards!

A new centre for retrofit: Historic Environment Scotland have announced plans and funding for a new dedicated national centre to champion the retrofit of traditional buildings, to improve energy efficiency, and play a key role in achieving Scotland’s net zero targets. £1m of funding has been secured from UKRI Arts and Humanities Research Council to establish the new hub. As well as expanding HES’s technical research capabilities, the centre will focus on delivery of much-needed training and innovation in the use of low-carbon retrofit materials. Dr David Mitchell, Director of Cultural Assets at HES, has welcomed the funding as marking ‘a step-change in our work to help improve the energy efficiency of traditional buildings’.

As part of Climate Week, SEDA launched  Scotland’s Pathway, the tenth and final film in 2045: The Big Conversation series. This film examines how Scotland’s construction sector can achieve the huge changes needed to reach Net Zero over the next two decades. Featuring insights from Patrick Harvie MSP, then Minister for Zero Carbon Buildings, and other key figures in the field, the documentary aims to spark discussions about the challenges and opportunities in delivering a Just Transition by 2045.

A new report by ClimateXChange explores data sources for monitoring compliance with proposed heating and energy efficiency standards in Scottish buildings. This research responds to the Scottish Government’s efforts to reduce emissions from buildings, as outlined in the recent Heat in Buildings Bill consultation. The study suggests combining and enhancing data from various sources to create a comprehensive central database.

Scottish Civic Trust is piloting new ways to engage with Scotland’s civic society. Starting in Glasgow, the Trust will host online forums with civic and local heritage groups to explore the issues and opportunities facing communities at a grassroots level. To register your interest, please email: sct@scottishcivictrust.org.uk. And in case you missed it, the Scottish Civic Trust are currently recruiting for their next Chair. For information about the role and how to apply, visit their website. Deadline for applications is 04 October 2024.

And finally, owing to the vast number of event submissions to this bulletin, we have only included events up to 5 November. But don’t worry – if you want to plan ahead, all other events can be viewed in the BEFS Events Calendar, and will be listed in our next bulletins.
