Project description:

The project constructed a new district heating network, distributing heat from a Heat Distribution Facility at Tullos Recycling Centre and a heat offtake at the new Energy from Waste plant at Tullos. The project links to the existing HeatNet district heat network to provide additional connections to domestic, local authority and third sector customers.

LCITP funding was granted for the construction of the new district heating network infrastructure, and the construction of the undertrack rail crossing, enabling district heat network pipework to be routed between Greenwell Road and Tullos Primary School.
