  1. London’s Decentralised Energy Programme Energy Saving Trust Energy Services Event 20 January 2011 Peter North Head of Energy Supply, LDA

  2. Why Decentralised Energy (DE)? • Why DE target? • The Mayor has set in place an ambitious trajectory of reducing CO2 emissions by 60 per cent (from a 1990 baseline) by 2025 • DE provides one of the most effective routes to help London decarbonise • Target set to produce 25 per cent of London’s heat and power use from localised DE schemes by 2025 – focus on CHP and district heating • DE target equivalent to 29TWh • Why DE? • Efficient technology in terms of utilising the full energy content of primary fuels – up to 80% efficiency • Highly suitable technology for urban areas such as London • Dense built environment • Suitable heat (and cooling) demand • Flexible solution - transitional technology

  3. Delivering Low Carbon Energy for London • Annual CO2 reduction of 3.5 million tonnes • Tenfold increase in generating capacity • £5-7 billion of investment • National political will is creating a favourable policy framework for DE - changing investment environment • Public sector is working to remove barriers and harness the private sector’s financing and delivery capability

  4. Sizing the Opportunity • Type 1 - Single sites • Small or medium CHP units 0.3 to 3.0MWe • Limited infrastructure - up to 3,000 residential units • Capex up to £10 million and a pay-back period of around five years for commercially viable schemes • Type 2 - Multi-site mixed use schemes • CHP units 3.0 to 40MWe • 3,000 to 20,000 residential units • Capex up to £100 million and an extended pay-back period of around ten years • Type 3 - Area wide heat transmission projects • Extensive heat pipe networks connecting multiple heat producers such as power stations, industrial waste heat or energy from waste facilities • May serve 100,000 plus residential units and a large range of mixed public and private commercial facilities • Paybacks in excess of 10 -15 years but with the potential for steady • Cash flow and utility type yields

  5. The London Heat Map – www.londonheatmap.org.uk The London Heat Map is an interactive tool developed by the LDA that allows users to identify opportunities for DE projects in London. • It builds on the 2005 London Community Heating Development Study • It is in a user friendly format using an interactive GIS system • It provides spatial intelligence on factors relevant to the identification and development of DE opportunities • It is publicly accessible to anyone with an interest in DE • It will evolve over the next three years alongside the DEMaP Project • Feasibility study for DE projects: • Heat mapping • Energy demand assessment • Asset sizing & DH network routing • Cost model Identify potential connections Estimate heat demand and load profile Preliminary design  technical viability CAPEX/OPEX vs income stream  financial viability

  6. EOn 400MWe Enfield Power Station (~12MWth potential LP steam) Johnson Matthey Industrial Plant (potential low grade heat rejection & existing CHP) ~7.5km Proposed Gasification Plant (potential for ~10MWth) Broadwater Farm LWL Edmonton EcoPark (~18-60MWth; 8-23MWe) District Heating Network Option: British Waterways Corridor District Heating Network Option: Network Rail Corridor ExampleUpper Lee Valley Opportunity Area Energy Strategy

  8. Energy Master Planning and CHP Support 28 boroughs receiving support from DEMAP (85% of London’s boroughs) – with funding support from London Councils 11 boroughs having written DE policy documents The London Heat Map: 10 maps completed eight currently underway Five completed by others to be uploaded Six DE officers employed Six boroughs at feasibility stage Four boroughs taken DE projects to market One borough secured significant developer contribution towards their area-wide network Five opportunity area energy strategies Seven organisations assisted at prefeasibility/feasibility stage Electricity Supply Licence ‘Lite’ Allowable solutions: connection to off-site heat networks Programme informing national heat policy Project Delivery CHP being installed at Crystal Palace National Sport Centre Olympic Park CHPDH (Cofely) extension: making 20MWth of low carbon heat available in the Stratford High Street Area – cofunded with LTGDC Royal Free Hospital CHP adapted for heat off-take to Camden Estates London Thames Gateway Heat Network: Strategy and commercial model for large scale heat transmission networks Established technical standards Development of commercial documentation (heat sales and heat purchase) Business plan and implementation strategy Developing public interest delivery vehicle Local Development Order submitted to planning authorities for adoption Progress
