Both organisations say the partnership reflects a shared recognition that heat networks will be central to meeting Scotland’s net-zero targets and long-term energy security. The Climate Change Committee’s pathway for Scotland identifies low-carbon heating as delivering 45% of emissions reductions by 2035, with Scotland assessed as having greater potential for heat networks than the rest of the UK.
