  • Episode 4: Net Zero Meeting the Skills Challenge
    May 3 2024

    Listen to the latest podcast in our Net Zero series with Mitsubishi Electric. BESA Director of Competence & Compliance, Helen Yeulet, talks with Lance Hitchins, Head of Customer Experience, looking after the Training Division and Ben Bartle-Ross, Senior Technical Trainer from Mitsubishi Electric about achieving the government’s target of 600,000 heat pump installation a year by 2028.

    ‘We need 50,000 renewables engineers to meet this target – we are looking for unicorns, this volume of engineers doesn’t exist yet!’

    Mitsubishi Electric are training a variety of people, ranging from early adopters of the technology, college leavers and the older generation who recognise the changes that are coming (mostly men!) - but believe the renewables conversation needs to start at those early years and attract more diverse future engineers.

    Have a listen and have a look at our Net Zero Hub to find out how you can be involved.
