CoolDown

1 Oct 2025 to 31 May 2028

Awarded
£1,321,723
Total cost £1,469,397

As GB warms due to climate change, uptake of Space Cooling (SC) is expected to increase significantly, leading to increased summer peak demands and greater network load for building comfort alongside the electrification of heat. However, SC demand is currently poorly accounted for in distribution network planning using limited modelling. Additionally, SC'...
