| Sufficient heat is
rejected when power stations generate
electricity, to heat every city in the
United Kingdom. The use of this heat
is enormously beneficial to the environment
and in enabling Local Authorities and
the government to meet their Home Energy
Conservation Act targets. |
Architecture Limited
is involved in the upgrading of
existing district heating systems to
Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems
to provide residents with reliable modern
heating and hot water with low bills.
At the same time this system uses the
waste heat, which can be carbon free,
to reduce the Landlord's costs and contribute
substantially to government carbon saving,
Kyoto and HECA targets. |
Studies funded by
the Energy Savings Trust have
demonstrated that the application of
this system will give greater environmental
benefits and carbon savings than could
be achieved by other methods such as
increased insulation of the buildings.
The concept is the same as used to heat
a motor car in winter. The waste heat
from the car's power plant (engine)
is piped into the car to keep the occupants |
