North East Scotland College is the latest major enterprise to connect to Aberdeen Heat & Power’s City Centre District Heating System in a deal worth £1m. The contract between AH&P’s commercial division DEAL (District Energy Aberdeen Ltd) and the college will see the delivery of both heat and hot water to the City Centre Campus at the Gallowgate campus later this year. Delivering the service involves extending the network from West North Street to NESCol’s Spring Garden entrance, and work began at the beginning of February. Ian Davidson, AH&P chief executive officer said: “We are delighted to be partnering with NESCol. This connection will allow a significant reduction in carbon emissions from the site while offering a competitively-priced, energy tariff.”
