Exeter District Heating Network Prior Information Notice

[Fileref]:  DHN - 001

The public sector anchor institutions of Exeter (Exeter City Council, University of Exeter, Exeter College, Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS FT) wish to work collaboratively to find a city-wide low carbon energy solution that is cost effective and resilient.
Our organisations have made commitments through a Civic Partnership Agreement to deliver a net zero solution for the city by 2030, commitments which are aligned to national government driven decarbonisation targets. All low carbon technologies are in-scope In this exercise although we are particularly interested in district heating solutions.
The current combined energy consumption of the partners in-scope is estimated to be around 60 GWH per annual.

[MainsiteplaceWorksDelivery]:  

The stakeholder group are interested in hearing from existing or new energy companies working in the sustainable energy sector how a system approach to delivering low carbon heat could be applied to Exeter.

1. The potential for a city-wide low carbon energy solution,
2. A statement supporting why the technology is likely to represent good value for money to the tax-payer
