Sutton wins funding for local heat network
Ed Davey, the Energy and Climate Change Secretary, paid a visit to Hackbridge today to announce that Sutton Council had been successful in securing Government funding for a feasibility study into creating a local heat network.
This funding is a fantastic boost for our plans to deliver sustainable and cheaper energy to local homes and businesses, and we are pleased to be working with our partners at BioRegional to develop a network using heat derived from the planned Energy from Waste Facility in nearby Beddington. This funding will also enable us to work towards addressing some of the fuel poverty residents in our borough are experiencing.
