Summary
Veolia is working with property real estate company Greystar’s Bermondsey Project development on a new 25-year contract to extend low carbon heat supply to a further 1,618 residential properties across six apartment blocks in Bermondsey, London, using energy supplied from the 35MWe South East London Combined Heat and Power (SELCHP) facility.
Heat energy supplied will be around 60 per cent renewable from the biogenic component of the treated waste and will help save 1,524 tonnes of CO2 emissions a year compared to natural gas derived heat supplies.
The new district heating scheme marks another important step in decarbonising domestic heat as almost a third of the final energy consumed in the UK is used as heat in the domestic, commercial and public sectors. District heating networks that harness the heat from the waste-fed electricity generation process represent an efficient, affordable and decarbonising alternative to provide households with cleaner energy.
