Summary

The Thames Mobile Heat Consortium, which also includes storage technology company Sunamp, will take heat from along the river – from Cory’s Riverside EfW plant, located in Belvedere, store it in Sunamp thermal batteries and transport it via barge to major heat consumers.

One potential consumer is the Pimlico District Heating Undertaking (PDHU), owned and operated by Westminster City Council, considering it as one of several options for decarbonisation.

According to Cory, PDHU is the oldest district heating scheme in the UK, supplying over 3,000 homes and 50 commercial and community buildings, and originally took waste heat from Battersea Power Station.

Cory said that if the Thames Mobile Heat Consortium does supply the PDHU, it has the scope to provide c.50GWh of heat per year, which is currently provided by large gas boilers.
