| Abstract | Dispersed industrial sites account for nearly 10% of UK carbon emissions, and there is no coordinated plan for decarbonising small to medium enterprises. Indus is developing a novel approach to decarbonising industrial heat by clustering industrial sites. This allows for shared infrastructure investment and co-location of renewables on site, and improved network planning. Indus is establishing a network-led framework to support commercial development of zero carbon industrial parks. Through market testing with local authorities, industry stakeholders, and gas networks, this whole systems approach to accelerating decarbonisation of industrial sites is an innovative step forward in the fight against climate change. | |
