A smarter source of low-carbon heat

Wastewater heat recovery is one of the most reliable and underutilised low-carbon heat sources available – and we’re helping bring it into practical use across Scotland.

Compared to other heat sources such as air, ground or rivers, wastewater offers a number of distinct advantages:

Higher average temperatures
A higher and relatively stable temperature year-round means dependable performance, unlike air or seasonal sources.

Built on existing infrastructure
The sewer network is already in place – reducing cost, disruption, and land requirements.

Close to demand
Heat is generated where it’s needed most – beneath towns, cities and developments.

Scalable potential
From single buildings to large district heat networks, solutions can grow with demand.
