Show Notes

Standards affect all of us every day, wherever we go, whatever we do. By defining good practice, they help people and organizations to do things better. For all sorts of things, from nanotechnology to Net Zero guidance.

And these standards are made by standards-makers – tens of thousands of people from around the world - who get together to agree good practice to the way things are made and done. All helping to make life easier, safer, and more enjoyable.

In this episode, Matthew speaks to Alistair Mackinnon, standards-maker and Chair of IECRE – the conformity assessment system for renewable energy.

Alistair describes his motivations for getting and staying involved in standards, the impact standards-making has had on his career, and his advice to anyone considering getting involved in standards.
