Скачать или смотреть Carbon Copy Podcast | 22 | Install Low Carbon Heating

The UK has some of the lowest quality and least energy efficient housing stock in Europe, and the majority of our buildings are still heated by gas fired boilers. This is despite huge hikes in fuel prices in recent years, and the introduction of subsidies for greener alternatives. For many people, low-carbon heating is inaccessible due to high upfront costs or unsuitable due to poor insulation. In this episode of the Carbon Copy Podcast we explore two initiatives that are helping communities to embrace low-carbon heat: Power Up North London, which has helped Caxton House in Archway to decarbonise and become a warmer more inviting space for those that use it, and the UK’s first rural heat network in Swaffham Prior.

Listen now and learn:


About the different approaches to decarbonising heat, and what works where.
How partnerships and collaborations are vital to get projects off the ground.
About the enormous savings – both in carbon emissions and financially – that can be made through switching away from fossil fuels.
