[UK] Evidence reports published on potential renewable heating technologies

Published on 11/12/2014

The Department of Energy & Climate Change has published research reports into the cost and performance of technologies which are not currently eligible for the Renewable Heating Incentive (RHI) but which might be considered for future inclusion. The non-domestic RHI scheme has provided financial support to UK businesses since November 2011. The DECC identified five non-domestic heating technologies that could have the potential to increase deployment of renewable heat and gathered evidence to decide whether they could be included in the RHI in future. The resulting research publications give an overview of the technologies and additional clarification on the scheme’s evidence requirements. They cover:

Bioliquids for heat;
Biopropane for grind injection;
Reversible Air to Air Heat Pumps (RAAHP);
Gas Driven Heat Pumps (GDHP); and
Direct Applications of renewable heat to industrial processes.

Research into Heat Networks is ongoing. Red-on-line EHS Legal Counsel Sources : Press release published on government website 10 November 2014.
