Vattenfall in Bristol
We are driving the transition towards low carbon heating by building a city-wide heat network to provide reliable heating and hot water to homes and businesses across Bristol.
Our partnership with Bristol City Leap
We are working with Bristol City Leap, a world-first city-scale public and private sector partnership aimed at achieving carbon neutrality for the city's energy infrastructure by 2030.
The twenty-year partnership between Bristol City Council, Ameresco and Vattenfall will enable the delivery of at least £1 billion of investment into Bristol’s energy system.
As the heat network partner we will invest £475 million by 2030 to expand the heat network and provide heating and hot water to the equivalent of 12,000 homes.

The Bristol Heat Network
We are helping the UK achieve its climate change ambitions by developing large, city-scale low carbon heat networks.
We are proud to partner with like-minded and forward thinking local authorities and developers and support them on their decarbonisation journey.
Building low carbon energy infrastructure
Bristol as a harbour city offers huge potential for low carbon heat sources. We currently operate England’s largest harbour-based water source heat pump at Castle Park Energy Centre, which has awarded ‘Heat Pump City of the Year’ by the European Heat Pump Association.
Our plan is to deliver more low carbon energy centres across Bristol and continue connecting buildings of all types to future proof their heating systems and reduce their reliance on fossil fuels.
By 2030, our goal is that buildings in Bristol will be powered by a combination of water source and air source heat pumps, electric boilers, thermal storage and waste heat from industrial processes, such as data centres and energy from waste plants.
Our team
We have a growing team of talented colleagues based in Bristol.
