Edinburgh-based UK Green Investment Bank and Equitix have invested £4 million for a series of sewage-heat recovery system installations across Scotland. This is the first time this technology, developed by SHARC Energy Systems, will be deployed in the UK. The pilot project will see heat extracted from waste water intercepted from Scottish Water’s Galashiels network. The heat will then be sold to Borders College under a 20-year purchase agreement resulting in energy and cost savings and a reduction in carbon emissions.
