Thousands of homes in Haringey, in London, will no longer need gas boilers fitted, following a GBP 27.8 million award from the UK government. The award supports the construction of two heat networks, which will pipe heat and hot water from the new ACR+ member NLWA Energy Recovery Facility at nearby Edmonton EcoPark. The center will use waste to generate low-carbon heating, hot water, and electricity, replacing the ageing 1970s plant which generates only electricity. The redevelopment of Edmonton EcoPark also includes the construction of GBP 100 million in recycling facilities to help boost north London’s recycling.
