SSE Energy Solutions

We are very proud to announce that we have signed an MoU with Darlington Borough Council that sets out a joint vision for the development of a town-wide heat network. While the project is in the early stages of development, SSE’s current plans include constructing an Energy Centre containing large air source heat pumps (ASHPs) which will be located in Darlington Town Centre. Jody Pittaway, Heat Sector Director at SSE Energy Solutions, said, “The partnership we are announcing with Darlington Borough Council will support the Development process for the heat network by helping us engage with many of the potential low carbon heat off takers within Darlington Town Centre. DBC has set clear targets for decarbonisation and its economic growth agenda will only be boosted by our Social Value strategy which is designed to champion a fair and just energy transition.” Find out all about this partnership and project by reading the full press release here: https://lnkd.in/ePtGSkqh #SSEEnergySolutions #DarlingtonBoroughCouncil
