Decarbonising heat is the biggest challenge the UK faces in terms of transforming the energy system to meet carbon reduction targets and achieve our clean growth ambitions.
Energy Systems Catapult is delivering the UK’s largest smart, consumer-focused project aimed at overcoming the barriers to the decarbonisation of residential heat – the Smart Systems and Heat (SSH) programme.
SSH Phase 1 (2017-2019)
SSH Phase 1 focused on developing capabilities, tools and insights for Local Energy System Modelling and Domestic Energy Services and was delivered by the Energy Systems Catapult for the Energy Technologies Institute.
Society is progressing toward connected homes, which is likely to enable a profound change in the way people buy energy; away from input commodities, people can’t understand toward service outcomes people value.
We explored how energy providers could use data from the emerging ‘smart home’ could enable profound changes in their energy retail provision, such as selling ‘Heat as a Service’ instead of units of fuel, to deliver high-quality heating outcomes that consumers really valued.
We also looked at how this could be used to accelerate the switch from gas central heating to low carbon alternatives, including the need for commercial, policy and regulatory arrangements to converge.
