Objectives
Abstract SHIELD is a bold new initiative that will revolutionise the way we heat our homes. By using innovative low-cost low-carbon heating solutions, such as distributed data centres, SHIELD will help to decarbonise heat and energy for vulnerable consumers and social housing tenants. In addition, SHIELD will use smart energy generation and storage technologies to intelligently balance demand and supply, helping reduce the upfront cost and running costs of consumers' heating and energy. This innovative approach to decarbonisation has the potential to transform the energy landscape and make a real difference to the lives of vulnerable people.
