Andrew Northcott

Knowledge Manager

I’ve been with Energy Saving Trust since 2024. As knowledge manager, I research new energy saving topics and write advice and guidance for our website and clients.

I’ve 14 years’ experience in the energy saving industry. Before joining Energy Saving Trust I set up a home energy advice service for a small charity that helped residents with energy advice topics. These included:

reducing bills
heating systems
energy tariffs
grant schemes for energy measures
dealing with damp and condensation
getting better ventilation

I’m a qualified energy assessor and trained in thermal imaging, and I’ve provided energy assessments for home owners and businesses by using thermal cameras to see heat loss in buildings.

I have a big interest in building physics as well as technologies that can help drive down a building’s carbon emissions. I’m also interested in how these tehchnologies can reduce fuel poverty and help people maintain a safe temperature in homes that are free from damp.

Outside of work I enjoy mountain walking and paddle boarding.
