Blue Planet Live is back on TV; fuelling the public with avid interest into protecting our planet from climate change. Furthermore, the headlines keep coming in about Councils and towns announcing ‘climate emergencies’. Our blog looks at the initiatives behind a climate emergency and how they are using heat networks to drive down carbon.
January is well underway and with it lots of talk of Brexit (surprisingly!). But, what about heat networks we hear you ask? Our blog looks at best practice standards and regulation worth keeping an eye out on in 2019.
From everyone at Switch2, we wanted to wish you a very merry Christmas and an extra happy New Year!
A few weeks ago the Competitions and Markets Authority (CMA) announced its preliminary findings resulting from their study of the heat network industry. In our blog we discuss the findings you need to know and how proposed regulation might affect existing heat networks, and more importantly the end customer.
Heating our homes and businesses causes almost a third of UK emissions, yet carbon reduction policy has traditionally centred on power supply. Excellent progress has been made in decarbonising the UK's power supply in recent years, with a huge shift to renewable energy sources. Now the focus is rightly moving to heat.
There is a major motive to reduce emissions from cars and electricity generation; transport and power stations actually only account for 20% and 30% respectively of our carbon emissions, compared to 50% from heat production.
