New reports from the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) identify more than £10bn of immediate heat network investment opportunities, the Association for Decentralised Energy has estimated. DESNZ published 15 Heat network zone opportunity reports for English towns and cities.
These pinpoint where heat networks can deliver the lowest-cost, low carbon heating in areas ranging in size from Birmingham and Sheffield to Canterbury and Cheltenham. They also identify the key opportunities for initial heat network development within each zone. The reports, which have been prepared as part of the Heat Networks Zoning Pilot, are being used to inform the development of DESNZ’s zoning policy.
