How it works: District heating without the emissions

Shoebox heat pumps connect to clusters of boreholes (Shared Ground Loop Arrays) via an ambient-temperature loop to provide sustainable and affordable heating, hot water and cooling.

This award-winning approach to district heating allows you to heat homes at scale without the wasteful, admin-heavy drawbacks of traditional heat networks.

See how shared ground loops work

No wasteful heat losses - the ambient-temperature loop distributes heat energy from borehole to heat pump


No central plant room - individual heat pump per household upgrades the energy and delivers the desired temperatures


No split bills - householders have the freedom to switch energy providers for the best deal

Why choose ground source heating?


Ground source heat pumps offer end users some of the lowest running costs for heating, and can provide 'free' passive cooling.


Suitable for both retrofit and new builds, this approach offers the lowest carbon heating, preparing us for a smart, zero-carbon future.


You can attract investors to fund the ground array, meaning you only have to account for the cost of the heat pumps.


Shared ground loops can last for over 100 years. Smart grid ready with no combustion, no flammable refrigerants and no air pollution, this is district heating for the future, today.
