About us
We are a trade association representing 160 interested parties from across the energy sector.
From April, our work will be structured by two advocacy functions: ADE: Demand and ADE: Heat Networks.
We are based in Westminster and our office is an exciting and dynamic place to work, with a team who are passionate about making a difference. Across Whitehall, Ofgem, NESO and others, we are working closely with decision-makers at the forefront of energy policy to shape the future energy market in the UK.
About Heat Networks
Heat networks are the proven path to decarbonising our towns and cities at scale. Effectively central heating for your local area, town or city, heat networks are infrastructure that carries low carbon heat from our renewables, rivers, data centres and so much else to our buildings. Heat networks will provide economic growth, bill savings as we decarbonise and local jobs and skills.
This is a crucial moment for the sector.
The Government is bringing forward a framework that will regulate the sector for the first time, spatial planning to coordinate large-scale heat network development and an effective ban on the use of natural gas in new build homes.
In the market, we are seeing significant and diverse investment in the way we have not seen before and a rapid shift to decarbonised networks, primarily through electrification. However, heat decarbonisation remains difficult with the cost of low carbon heat still higher than gas and significant policy uncertainty pushing up risk premiums and the cost of finance.
By leading the ADE: Heat Networks function, you will have the opportunity to make a real impact in ensuring that this sector assumes its rightful role in the transition, the UK seizes the opportunity to grow this market from 3% and a £5 billion opportunity today to more than 20% and a £100 billion opportunity by 2050 and overall, the UK finally makes substantial progress on heat decarbonisation.
