Leep’s heat solutions capabilities
Leep has the knowledge and expertise to design, fund, deliver and operate heat solutions for residential, commercial and industrial developments and retrofits.
Operating since 2010 – and backed by strong shareholders -
Leep is one of the UK’s leading operators of regulated and non-regulated last-mile multi-utility and heat networks.
It has a contracted portfolio of over 300 electricity, water, wastewater, heating, cooling and hot water networks, and more than 150,000 active or contracted connections. And this number is growing.
In the UK, heat has been traditionally supplied by individual property-based solutions – mainly gas boilers. With the transition to low and zero carbon, we need to move towards non-fossil fuel options.
Heat networks - and centralised heat - offer the most cost-effective solution to delivering reliable, affordable, low carbon heat and cooling in urban areas and meet UK standards and regulatory requirements.
There is not a one-size fits all technical solution for heat networks - each must reflect the development’s specific characteristics and available sources of heat. Leep can offer this full breadth of technical solutions.
The company’s impressive credentials include the design and ongoing management of MediaCityUK’s low carbon, de-centralised energy centre - providing power, heating, hot water and cooling to over 1000 commercial and domestic customers – which received the first ever BREEAM award for a sustainable development. The company’s demonstrable track record also includes Liverpool’s Princes Dock, Wood Wharf and Newfoundland in Canary Wharf and Battersea Power Station.
If you are a developer with an existing heat network that you are looking to sell, or have a requirement for a new de-centralised energy scheme and district heat network on your development – or a consultant evaluating heating options for your clients – please email info@leeputilities.co.uk
