Summary
Developers have secured a contract to deliver England's "biggest shared ground loop heat pump system", which is expected to reduce the energy bills of local residents by up to 50%.
The project will feature 16 shared ground loop systems serving eight tower blocks in Enfield, London.
Kensa Contracting, which is heading up the scheme alongside French utility firm Engie, says it will connect retrofitted heat pumps in 400 flats to the largest collection of district arrays of its kind.
“This project is an excellent example of how district heating can be rolled out using the shared ground loop system architecture,” said Kensa’s contracting director Dr Trewhella.
