Article summary

The Scottish Government has published a review of the Heat Networks Delivery Plan (HNDP) detailing the advancements in fulfilling the requirements of the Heat Networks (Scotland) Act 2021 and other supplementary policies. Since the publication of the HNDP in March 2022, the government has established a new statutory heat networks target of 7 Terrawatt hours by 2035, indicating to the developing heat networks sector that both the current and future government of Scotland are dedicated to its expansion, thus offering increased confidence and assurance for potential investors in these initiatives. Over £10m of grant funding has been awarded since the launch of Scotland's Heat Network Fund in 2022 and the government also seeks to align its delivery programmes with the upcoming Local Heat and Energy Efficiency Strategies delivery plans.
