Innovate UK’s Net Zero Heat Programme is driving the transition away from gas as a source for heating to more sustainable solutions.


Projects range from using artificial intelligence (AI) to help landlords bring homes up to standard to a new off-site approach to retrofit, to data-driven decisions for non-domestic building upgrades.


According to the Climate Change Committee, 23% of total emissions in the UK is generated from heating our 30 million buildings.
