Grantchester HeatLink

Grantchester is considering options for a renewable heat network. The village never connected to natural gas, so 54% of homes remain dependent on oil boilers and around 31% use electricity. 

In 2022, the Parish Council obtained funding from the Rural Communities Energy Fund to commission a pre-feasibility study, testing whether a renewable heat network would be viable. In 2024, funding was received for a further study to produce a detailed techno-economic evaluation of a preferred heat network option. 

Today, we are working with residents in Grantchester to define their preferences and shape the heat network design.
