Description

Changes in the energy sector offer the potential to add value to Together Housing's main assets - its properties. To do this at any strategic scale would require a very large investment commitment that will not be considered without robust evidence of project operation and return and a realistic assessment of the risks involved in a dynamic market place.

The pilot project is designed to achieve the following:

 Provide data about the costs of investment and operations
 Experience of large scale implementation within a selected tenant community
 Provide data on power generation, storage, discharge and grid export
 Produce market data on the revenue generation potential based on the data working with a range of market intermediaries.

The project and its findings are intended to be shared with the social housing sector and stimulate further investment in the low carbon economy by removing risk and providing an operating model.

The project is being co-funded by European Union Structural and Investment Funds (ESIF) Managed by Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government and detailed monitoring will last until March 2021.
