Project Scotland
Summary
FORTH Electrical Services (FES) has been appointed by Clyde Gateway to construct a low temperature energy network in a £3.1 million project.
It will supply businesses in the Clyde Gateway district in Glasgow with a ‘cheaper and cleaner’ energy source in what will be Scotland’s ‘first and only’ district heating system capable of providing cooling as well as renewable heating to business premises.
The district heating and cooling grid will use heat pump technology and exchange thermal energy between buildings with different heating and cooling needs. The grid not only uses sewerage as an energy resource, but it is backed up by solar, battery, and heat pump technology, brought together in Shawfield in a renewable power facility.
A two pipe system, one cooler, one warmer, will deliver an ambient energy loop that begins at Scottish Water‘s wastewater treatment works in Dalmarnock then runs through to Magenta Business Park and then on to individual businesses.
