"A huge opportunity to lead the UK’s clean heat transition..." - Vijay Tank of E.ON Energy Infrastructure Solutions on plans for new infrastructure for London

As cities look for ways to reduce carbon emissions and improve energy efficiency, heat networks are becoming an increasingly important solution. Instead of every building running its own boiler, heat networks supply heating, and increasingly cooling, from a central energy plant to multiple buildings through a system of underground pipes. We invited the Climate Centre to visit our energy centre in the heart of the Square Mile to learn more.

Moving from ambition to action is essential to delivering a fair and affordable energy transition – and cities are leading the way

E.ON has signed a new connection agreement to connect Mode London (125 London Wall) to its City of London heat network. The agreement is the first ‘sleeved’ supply from E.ON’s Citigen energy centre in the heart of the Square Mile and marks the start of a two decade partnership with the building running into the 2040s.

The new year has brought, new lighting contracts for E.ON’s Utility Solutions lighting team in Hinckley as it is awarded to new contracts for streetlight installation and connection for Davidson Homes new development in Market Harborough and with Vistry Partnerships in Keresley.

As work continues on extending Birmingham’s tram network to the east of the city, E.ON has completed the installation of new street lighting for the Eastside extension from Bull Street to the future Curzon Street HS2 station.

Efficiently capturing and using waste heat is key to boosting the public‘s acceptance of data centres in their communities. By evolving from isolated energy-hungry burdens to collaborative partners within communities, a new report by E.ON illustrates how data centres can become active participants in local heat planning and provide a wider – and welcome – contribution to neighbours.

At E.ON, we believe making new energy work for everyone means more than just delivering reliable, sustainable energy – it’s about caring for the people and communities we serve.

Major sports investment projects can be more than infrastructure, they can be powerful catalysts for fairer, more prosperous communities long after construction ends, E.ON’s Head of New City Partnerships, Natalie Robinson, tells the Beyond the Sport conference
