The DECC report 'An Assessment of the Costs, Performance, and Characteristics of UK Heat Networks' published last year carried out a review of the prices charged to customer by a representative sample of heat networks. The average heat price was found to be 6.43p/kWh but with a wide range of 4.64 to 9.88 p/kWh, which was still on average less than a typical average gas central heating system. Given your involvement in the roll out of district heat networks, does this price range accord with your expectations of district heat network suppliers in London and how much they charge customers?
