On Thursday 24 April, we gathered in Edinburgh for a powerful day of discussion, learning, and first-hand experience, exploring how low-carbon heat can be delivered at scale and made accessible for communities across the UK.

A Look Behind the Scenes
Before the symposium, we hosted a guided visit to the MEL heat network, including:
Shawfair Energy Centre: a flagship example of low-carbon energy generation, where smart controls and efficient systems are at work
Craighall Village: a new community being supplied with sustainable heat through this innovative network
Led by SAV Systems and supported by Vattenfall Heat UK, the visit offered a hands-on look at how collaboration, technology, and local delivery come together to future-proof heat for real homes and residents.
