Network H+C

The aim of the H+C Network is to facilitate this through funded workshops, conferences and secondments which in combination will enable researchers, technology developers, managers, policymakers and funders to come together to share their progress, new knowledge and experiences. It also directly impacts on this through a series of research funding calls which will offer seed funding to address key technical, economic, social, environmental and policy challenges.

Starting from October 2020, over four years the proposed Network will focus on the following five themes which are essential for decarbonising heating and cooling:

Theme 1 Primary engineering technologies and systems for decarbonisation

Theme 2 Underpinning technologies, materials, control, retrofit and infrastructure

Theme 3 Future energy systems and economics

Theme 4 Social impact and end users’ perspectives

Theme 5 Policy Support and leadership for the transition to net-zero
