This project will develop the novel concepts of 5th generation district heating networks in Scotland, which utilises multiple low carbon heating sources, such as heat from waste water, river water, data centre. The collaboration will focus on developing numerical models
and tools for system simulations and optimisation. The project outcomes would strongly support the Development of 5th Generation District Heating and Cooling (5GDHC) Infrastructure and Ambient Loop which will adopt various technologies for heating and
cooling demands as part of the Clyde Gateway Masterplan. The project will demonstrate how efficiency can be maximised to reduce energy losses.
