Projects in Hull and Peterborough are the first to secure funding through the Green Heat Network Fund ( GHNF ), a £288 million government funding scheme launched in March this year.

John Flint, CEO of UK Infrastructure Bank, said:With rising energy bills, the need for low cost, low carbon heating systems is clear. Heat networks provide an innovative and proven solution which can help tackle the net zero and local growth challenge.
