Webinar – Kensa’s vision for geothermal heating in Northern Ireland, 9 February 2023

Webinar – Integrating Northern Ireland’s and Kensa’s Visions for Geothermal Heating

As part of the Northern Ireland webinar series, a webinar will be held on 9 February 2023 at 16:00-17:00 GMT with the topic “Integrating Northern Ireland’s and Kensa’s Visions for Geothermal Heating.” Free registration for the webinar is currently available via this link.

The speaker for this webinar will be Dr. Matthew Trewhella, CEO of the The Kensa Group.

Kensa recently presented a vision for a Green and Great Britain at the House of Commons in London. The centrepiece to this vision is networked heat pumps – individual heat pumps connected to ambient temperature district heating and ground source boreholes. Kensa’s approach brings together geology, communities, customers, technology and investment and therefore links incredibly well with the vision for Geothermal Energy for Northern Ireland that was launched in June 2022 as part of #NIGeothermalWeek.

This webinar will describe Kensa’s current progress towards networked heat pumps, illustrated by some large scale case studies in social housing and new builds. They will then describe a practical, place-based approach to heat decarbonisation for different areas across Northern Ireland. Areas are categorised by their heat density to choose between three main geothermal/ground source techniques – central plant district heating, networked heat pumps and individual heat pumps.
