Even the decentralised energy sector sometimes struggle to understand what is community and district heating and the differences between them. Therefore we thought it would be useful to explain what they are and to demonstrate the differences, clearing up some of the common preconceptions.
Rising energy prices are a concern for many in the UK and around the globe at present. According to the latest BEIS statistics, in 2020, there were an estimated 13.2 per cent of households (3.16 million) in fuel poverty in England under the Low Income Low Energy Efficiency (LILEE) metric.

In this instalment of our series of blogs examining the role Heat Interface Units (HIUs) play in heat networks, we take a look at the key components which make up a Heat Interface Unit.
Hundreds of thousands of homes connected to UK heat networks are unmetered – resulting in major energy waste that increases both bills and carbon emissions.
