Renewable Heating Solutions Research Project

Renewables and heating have become extremely topical in recent times. During my foundation years studies, I produced a literature review for an Engineers Without Borders National Challenge examining biomass heating solutions that could be implemented Govan, Scotland, to combat fuel poverty. Despite the extensive Biomass heating infrastructure seen in Scandinavia, I was stuck by the complexity of implementing and maintaining biomass feedstocks, as well as their debatable indirect effects on CO2 emissions.
