The Heat Network is a forum to discuss and share good practice about district and communal heating within social housing. We aim to bring together our own communal heat experiences and share the lessons we’ve learnt with colleagues across the sector. We also act as a conduit for social housing input into national heat network policy. Our 28 housing association and local authority members collectively represent over 104,000 homes on nearly 2900 networks, 21% of all heat networks as defined by BEIS and 22% of all customers.
