The Association for Decentralised Energy
The network will be built in phases, eventually feeding heat to all parts of the city through a network of underground pipes connected to a number of energy centres, including biomass boilers and gas combined heat and powerplants.
Eneteq Services Ltd was appointed as principle consultant for the citywide district heating network design and commercialisation project which started in February 2015. The project included several significant design challenges especially associated with network crossings over the river Avon and under Bristol Temple Meads Station. The network is also required to be developed in fragmented stages as other utility works are undertaken across the city. Eneteq scope included working internally within Bristol City Council coordinating all key internal and external stakeholders to drive the programme forward.
Headline scope included heat network HNDU feasibility study, input into the financial model to ensure HNDU compliance, HNDU funding applications, heat mapping, network diversity modelling, pipe sizing, pipe 3d modelling and routing, utility coordination, civils trench and chamber detailing, thermal expansion, heat loss calculations, bracketry design and structural coordination with bridge manufacturer for bridge section, ground radar surveys, fabrication drawings and pipe supply, install and commissioning to the bridge and cattle market road sections of the city.
