Social Housing Net Zero Heat Fund Progress Reports Quarter 2, 2024
Project Title: Rural Stirling Off-gas Electrification of Heat
Project Organisation: Rural Stirling Housing Association
Technology Type(s): ASHP, Solar PV and Battery Storage
Location(s): Aberfoyle, Stirling Council
Grant Value: £486,357
Completion Date: July 2022
Project Headline: Providing clean heating to 30 properties in Aberfoyle
Project Description:
The project focused on renewable microgeneration generation and electrification of heat with a holistic whole energy systems approach. 30 social rented properties around Aberfoyle received various energy efficiency measures, which varied depending on the property size and archetype.
The low carbon solution replaced a range of inefficient heating systems including solid fuel (coal) back boilers, electric panel heaters and electric storage heaters. The project was successful in reducing energy consumptions, carbon emissions, energy bills for tenants as well as improving thermal comfort in the homes.
The project’s aim was to address the problem of decarbonising heat in smaller, hard to treat domestic properties and accelerated the decarbonisation of heating in off gas properties.
