Regenerating community energy

By: Language: English Series: Building Engineer ; 80(10) October 2005, 14-15(2)Publication details: 2005Subject(s): Summary: Discusses the Community Energy Programme, which utilises one source of heat to supply energy to a number of buildings, offering cost-effective long term solutions, particularly in urban regeneration projects. Community energy systems have considerably lower life cycle costs than other heating systems, are fuel flexible, and offer potential for local employment. Pre-set heating levels help prevent deterioration of building fabric, reducing damp and condensation, and reducing maintenance costs.
