- 7. | Re-energising Camden | Page 6 London Strategic and Policy Context Low Carbon Technologies Target to meet 25% of London’s energy needs from decentralised energy sources by 2025 New development subject to Mayor’s energy hierarchy in London Plan: 1. Be lean: use less energy 2. Be clean: supply energy efficiently 3. Be green: use renewable energy Investment in UK to date in decentralised energy and energy efficiency has saved £37.2bn per year; 1. Reducing need for centralised generation capacity 2. Reducing dependence on imported fossil fuels

- 9. | Re-energising Camden | Page 8 8 Gas vs. low carbon heat sources • Electricity Generation - Photovoltaic Panels – proven, space efficient, eligible for Feed-in-Tariffs - Combined Heat and Power engines – proven and well established but with potential air quality issues - Fuel cells – emerging technology, no air quality issues and eligible for Feed-in-Tariffs at a micro scale (<2kW) • District Heating Networks - Gas – proven, space efficient, simple, with mature supply chain - Low Carbon Heat Sources– emerging technologies / supply chains, more complex, not conventionally cost competitive - Grid decarbonisation will eliminate any carbon savings from gas CHP. - London study: - Secondary heat about equivalent to total heating demand (70 TWh/yr); - Nearly half can be used with DHNs (30 TWh/yr) Low Carbon Technologies
- 10. | Re-energising Camden | Page 9 9 Feed-in Tariff • Payment from government for every kilowatt hour of electricity generated from renewable means. • Rate based on: - Size of the system - Type of technology installed - Date of installation - Conditional on use of approved certified installer • More info at www.gov.uk/feed-in-tariffs Feed-in-Tariffs
