Abstract
⺠The UK has few district heating schemes but there is much potential for development. ⺠GIS mapping can identify heat sources/sinks to aid infrastructure deployment. ⺠Innovative CHP systems for cities need to be small-scale and high-efficiency. ⺠Numerical modelling of heat transfer can help optimise combustor designs. ⺠Energy storage can mitigate the erratic supply of non-fossil fuel energy sources.
