Peter Rickaby - Part 2- Lessons from Thamesmead and the damp and mould crises
Now living in South Africa Peter is an Independent Energy and Sustainability Consultant working for the UK housing and building industries.
His influence on how we view energy in buildings, risk, retrofit and standards in the UK is wide-ranging and profound.
For 35 years from 1982 to 2017, Peter was a Director of Rickaby Thompson Associates, a specialist energy and sustainability consultancy with clients including three UK Government Departments, the Energy Saving Trust, the Building Research Establishment, National Energy Services, The Institute for Sustainability, the BBC and many more.
He contributed extensively to the industry-led Each Home Counts Review, where he was also a member of the Implementation Board
He chaired the BSI Retrofit Standards Task Group and was Technical Author of PAS 2035:2019 Retrofitting Dwellings for Improved Energy Efficiency: and PAS 2038 Retrofitting Non-Domestic Buildings for Energy Efficiency:
Peter's knowledge of how we understand risk in the built environment intrigues me, and I have seen first-hand how this has had profound effects on outcomes in the most challenging environments.
We discussed how our perspective of risk in both retrofit and moisture in buildings has developed over the last few decades, his career and the now famous Theamesmead project, the condensation damp and mould crisis of the last 12 months—ventilation, of course, and much more.
