Local Authority Webinar Series | Building Back Better: The Future of Heat Infrastructure Projects as Part of the Green Recovery
The world has changed significantly since the arrival of COVID-19, but as we begin to emerge from lockdown the challenge of decarbonising heat remains. As progressives push for a green recovery driven by the Green New Deal, we explored the new emerging landscape and the levers we now have to drive change in the carbon intensity of our heat.
This event convened industry-leading business and the most progressive local governments to set out the challenges and opportunities for the delivery of heat networks in the post-COVID landscape.
The webinar covered:
- How local authorities are adapting and managing risk for projects, particularly in the Detailed Project Development (DPD) and commercialisation stages
- Quantifying and understanding new construction risks
