Dense urban developments demand a different approach to heating and cooling.

Around nine in ten UK homes could face overheating by 2050, while growing urban density is putting increasing pressure on available space and energy systems.

‍The Heat Is On explores how ground source heat pumps and ambient loop networks can help project teams overcome space constraints, improve early-stage feasibility and support long-term urban energy infrastructure.
