Case Study
Glasgow University Heat Network
Glasgow University Heat Network Select Country And Language Close Working in partnership with Crown House Technologies, Sweco implemented a new heating and power network, to connect 53 buildings on the Glasgow University estate, to a new energy centre. Using the latest combined heat and power (CHP) technologies the project will help the University reach its environmental target of a 20% reduction in carbon emissions and reduce annual energy costs through a more efficient generation and distribution of heat and power. Project Historically the buildings were heated by steam, supplied from a central boiler house which was nearing the end of its lifecycle and as a consequence was no longer efficient or cost effective. In line with their Carbon Management Plan (CMP), the University sought to im
