The UK's Information Portal for Decentralised Energy

______________________________________________________________

The Decentralised Energy Knowledge Base

Whilst data on energy is widely available on the web, information on decentralised energy generation and systems is often fragmented. DEKB.co.uk, which was launched on 9th June 2008, has been developed in response to this lack of a centralised information source for this embryonic industry. Whether you are a practitioner, consultant, agency, consumer or developer we hope that you will find DEKB.co.uk a useful source for all aspects of decentralised energy. Read more About Us...

Bristol City Council: Barton Hill is one of several community heating schemes managed by Bristol City Council that together supply heat to around 3,000 homes. The installation of a CHP unit, assisted by a £75,000 grant from the Residential CHP Programme has an expected primary energy saving of 5,550,000 kWh and and annual carbon dioxide saving of 2,500 tonnes. The installation of CHP plant was the most cost-effective solution for both tenants and the council. http://www.bristol.gov.uk
