TENDER HEAT NETWORK TECHNO-ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY STUDY FOR DIDCOT VALE OF WHITE HORSE DISTRICT COUNCIL

Reference

C-000444

Description

This project will deliver a heat network feasibility study for an area northwest of Didcot. The study will consider the potential combination and/or expansion of potential heat network zones identified by the National Zoning Model (NZM), by incorporating opportunities provided by adjacent data centre development proposals. 400,000sqm of data centres are proposed by several developers on brownfield land adjacent to the operational Didcot Power Station (Oxfordshire). The NZM has not considered these future waste heat sources.

The overarching aims of this study are:

  • To review heat network zone development opportunities, to help prepare for the introduction of heat network zoning policy.
  • To determine whether heat network scheme(s) for the specified area are viable.
  • To understand how heat network schemes can be delivered in alignment with the forthcoming Heat Network Zoning Regulations.
  • To set out for the council the range of possible delivery models based on different levels of local authority leadership and investment.
  • To provide decision makers with recommendations which describe the next steps required to take the project through to delivery.
