District heating Systems Where we are How we got here Where we want to be How we think we can get there Aims and Objectives

District Heating Systems “where a number of neighboring buildings could be supplied from one boiler, much might be saved in attendance and fuel, as well as cost of apparatus. “ Robertson Buchanan, Glasgow, 1815 Scotland might reduce the amount of energy used for heat, diversify sources of heat, provide increased security of heat supply, along with greater local control and reduce the pressure on household energy bills. Heat Generation Policy, Scottish Government

Where we are Renfrewshire Council is currently developing an existing DHS ExistingImprovement Gas firedBiomass fired (pellets) Un-insulated flatsEWI Heat with rentMetered Warm air heatingStandard wet radiator systems

Systematic development approach Warm Homes Fund: Strategy application £18,500; Rural DHS To evaluate the potential, identify suitable sites and engage with private householders to develop small scale DHS for off- gas properties.

Systematic development approach Warm Homes Fund: Strategy application £19,500; Urban Renewable DHS To identify suitable urban renewable heat sources within commercial estate, define RC public loads and potential, define distribution of housing in the vicinity of generation sites.

Systematic development approach Warm Homes Fund: Strategy application £18,500; Biomass Strategy To evaluate the potential to grow, process and use biomass within RC. Develop a focused refurbishment of schools to biomass, partner/develop biomass production, identify potentially suitable processing sites.

Systematic development approach Start small Specific local projects are deliverable. Identify key heat loads Scottish Government heat map Identify properties we control Public buildings Schools Care homes Identify properties we can influence or partner Housing associations

Systematic development approach Think big There is a need for vision, strategy and long term planning. Identify potential future developments or areas to extend the DHS to. Design systems with connectivity in mind. Design surplus but not excess.

Local Authority Approach Local Authority DHS Strategy Renewable heat LA renewable heat sources Biomass Commercial heat partners Waste to Heat LA fossil heat sources Oil and gas

Biomass Community woodlands LA owned land and wind fall Commercial plantation Processing as a community enterprise Delivery as a community enterprise

Biomass economics A virtuous cycle? Local biomass production & processing Local biomass demand LA fuel spend

Justification for biomass boilers
