WARMTE: How the Netherlands Is Rebuilding Heat After Gas In our latest white paper, WARMTE Heat for the Common Good, we explore how the Netherlands is tackling one of the biggest challenges facing both Dutch and UK energy systems: what comes after natural gas? Rather than relying solely on individual technology choices, the Dutch are …
Delivering Regional Heat: What Britain Can Learn from Denmark For decades, energy policy has focused on how we generate heat. Denmark’s TVIS network shows that the bigger opportunity may be how we move it. In our latest Raven-i, we explore how four Danish municipalities created a shared heat transmission network that connects industrial waste heat, …
Copenhagen’s Heat Network Story Offers a Blueprint for the United Kingdom For decades, discussions about heat networks have focused on how heat is generated. Copenhagen’s experience suggests the bigger challenge, and opportunity, may be how heat is planned, governed and shared across a city region. In our latest Raven-i, we explore how Copenhagen developed one …
Beyond Generation: Why Infrastructure Is the Next Energy Challenge For years, the UK’s energy transition has focused on one question: how do we generate cleaner energy? In our latest Raven-i, we argue that the next phase of the transition is not about generation alone. It’s about infrastructure. Every day, valuable heat from industry, data centres, …
Why are we asking housebuilders to become energy companies?
