What are heat networks and why will they be a growing part of a sustainable future? How do we achieve consumer confidence for people who will be getting their heat this way?

In the first episode of new Heat Network podcast 'Get Heated', from Switch2 Energy, host Remi Adeleke is joined by two industry experts.

Ian Allan from Switch2 has over 30 years of specialist experience - he explains what a heat network is and how it works, plus gives some background on why there are some very old heat networks in the UK... but also why they are about to make a big resurgence.

Stephen Knight from Heat Trust shares his knowledge on customer service and consumer protection. He gives insights into the challenges and opportunities that heat networks provide - both to the companies or organisations managing them... and the end point consumer themselves.

A lot gets covered in this episode. From regulation to maintenance... why Europe has more heat networks than the UK... how a circular approach to heating and cooling could bring massive progress... and how there is great scope to improve how heat networks operate in the future.

Whether you are an established heat network industry professional, or someone just getting to grips with this type of tech, you'll find plenty of useful insights in this episode.
