Quantifying the heat flexibility gap
The Heat Flexibility Gap project for Thermal Storage UK aims to quantify how much flexibility is to be required in 2035 as a result of the electrification of heat and transportation and the decarbonisation of the electricity supply. LCP Delta modelled power supply and demand at the GB level under different scenarios to optimise electricity […]
Wales & West Utilities launch Energy Systems Toolkit, created with LCP Delta
LCP Delta worked with Wales & West Utilities (WWU) to create a toolkit to support local authorities and other local organisations with net zero planning. The toolkit includes an accessible version of WWU’s 2050 Energy Pathfinder, a whole systems simulator which allows organisations to assess the carbon and cost implications of different energy scenarios. It […]
Clean heat and energy efficiency workforce assessment
The Scottish Government has a statutory climate change target to reduce carbon emissions by 75% by 2030 and reach net-zero emissions by 2045. Achieving these goals will require significant changes in how homes and non-domestic buildings in Scotland are heated and their energy efficiency improved. The supply chain in Scotland also needs to be fit-for-purpose […]
Electrification of Heat – Case studies on Heat Pump installation experiences
Delta-EE worked with the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) and Energy Systems Catapult to create heat pump case studies to help people better understand the consumer journey and user experience of living with a heat pump. The Electrification of Heat (EoH) demonstration project, funded by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial […]
European Market Monitor on Energy Storage (EMMES)
The European Market Monitor on Energy Storage is the definitive analysis of energy storage markets. Delta-EE produces this report in close partnership with EASE, the European Association for Storage of Energy. The report is based upon primary research with leading companies and stakeholders; market data that companies can rely on; analysis of EU policy and […]
Innovative BiTraDER project awarded funding through Ofgem’s Network Innovation Competition
In 2022, Delta-EE is delighted to be commencing work on the innovative BiTraDER project, which has a total cost of £8.4 million, as a project partner to Electricity North West, Electron and AFRY Management Consulting. The innovative BiTraDER project to investigate and trial options for a bilateral trading market was awarded funding through Ofgem’s […]
Evidence review for hydrogen for heat in buildings
Hydrogen is one of only a handful potential heat decarbonisation routes which offer a mass-market solution. This project was commissioned to help build a clear evidence base, using existing literature relating to all aspects of the use of hydrogen to heat buildings, including supporting infrastructure and costs. Lessons gained thus far from key projects have been […]
Heat pump use in Scotland – an evidence review
Heat pumps are an efficient way of producing heat from electricity; they operate by capturing the latent heat in the air, ground or water and using it for heating. Heat pumps are expected to play a significant role in decarbonising heat in Scotland; the Climate Change Committee has described them as a ‘low-regrets’ option, and they […]
