...Neville Adrian Martin, BSc, CEng, CEnv, FCIWEM, MICE; William Spence, CEnv, MCIWM District heating schemes are rare in the UK. Incineration of municipal waste has become controversial despite it being common practice in much of Europe where it is seen as good environmental practice. Currently...

... purpose of the facility is to provide heat in the form of hot water fed into the Sheffield district heat energy network. It also generates electricity, which is fed into the distribution network of Yorkshire Electricity Distribution Limited (YEDL). In addition, the heat network is backed up by a series...

..., predominantly from gas. District heating schemes, at the community level, using combined heat and power (CHP) have the potential to deliver significant savings in carbon dioxide emissions. This paper considers various CHP schemes at both the individual house and the microgrid street level, where a cluster of up...
