Get your heat from the streets: Kensa Utilities' plans for geothermal district heating, with Lisa Tresedar (Kensa Utilities)

More heat-related chat this week. We're with Lisa Tresedar of Kensa Utilities joined us. She’s the string-puller behind Kensa’s Heat the Streets project the success of which has garnered national coverage because of its innovation and its success so far (which is now up for an award).Heat the Streets is a pioneering project in which Kensa sought to provide a Cornish village, that wasn’t on the gas grid, with its own grid infrastructure using a geothermal heat network and heat pumps.So, we talked about how the project got started, the challenges of decarbonisation, what they learned about user behaviour, where they see opportunity in the space, what's motivating Kensa, and what they plan to do next There are loads in there for anyone who's thinking about heating decarbonisation and community-based solutions. What's particularly heartening is that this has worked here and shows plenty of potential to work elsewhere too.
