Heat Network Guidance

Book your place on our free event on heat networks and traditional buildings.

Presentations will be given by the authors of our new publication Short Guide: Heat Networks and Traditional Buildings as well as Scottish Government policy team and wider HES technical guidance. These presentations will look at areas such as the suitability of traditional buildings for connection to heat networks, the practicalities of doing so and consents. Those attending in person will be able to collect a copy of the guide.

We will be delivering the sessions both in person at the Engine Shed in Stirling and online. For those attending online, the session will be delivered on MS Teams. The joining link will be sent to you the week before the event.

The event will not be recorded.
