Powering the UK’s Low-Carbon Future with Heat Networks

At SSE, we design, develop, invest in, deliver and operate large-scale district heat networks.

By harnessing sustainable heat sources, these networks provide businesses, communities, and public sector organisations with a resilient, low-carbon alternative to traditional heating systems—reducing emissions and protecting against energy market volatility.

What are heat networks?

Heat networks offer more than just low-carbon energy—they’re a smarter, cleaner, and more secure way to power communities, today and for generations to come.

Heat networks are at the heart of the UK’s net-zero strategy. By leveraging multiple low-carbon heat sources, including waste and recoverable heat, we deliver sustainable, flexible solutions that power organisations.
