District Heating Solutions

Our district heating capabilities bring together our vast skills and experience in providing a range of schemes to the UK. We are proud to have helped so many clients become more heat efficient, reduce carbon and benefit from the savings to be made by adopting greener methods.

Complete project partnership

Sweco has been involved in driving the delivery of renewable and lower-cost heat through district heating projects for many decades across Europe.

Our team offers a fully integrated approach from initial energy mapping and masterplanning, through to technical feasibility and business case development, design and implementation, commissioning, operations and maintenance, and even network optimisation. We work with private sector clients as well as local authorities and other public bodies supported by the Heat Network Delivery Unit under BEIS and the Heat Network Partnership in Scotland.

A district energy network will alleviate fuel poverty for residents, and for those running wider estates and building assets, and will bring about energy security and stabilised future costs.

We provide detailed design and engineering, as well as supporting the design and build of energy centre design and heat networks for universities, private sector developers, energy service companies and contractors.

Together with our clients and the collective knowledge of our 22,000 engineers, consultants and other specialists, we co-create solutions to address urbanisation, capture the power of digitalisation, and make our societies more sustainable.​ With international multi-disciplinary teams, we can call on the right insight and technical capability at the right time from across Buildings, Infrastructure, Advisory & Planning and Compliance.​
