Access a net zero heating solution that meets your environmental and financial objectives with flexible, cost-effective Heat Pumps.
As a low-or-zero carbon solution, Heat Pumps can provide heating from 40°C up to 165°C. They don’t emit any direct emissions, significantly reducing or replacing an organisation’s need to burn fossil fuels on-site.
We offer five different types of Heat Pump, alongside financing options, maintenance plans, and integrations with other onsite energy generation technologies.
Do you have a Heat Pumps project in mind? Are you a large organisation that consumes over 500,000 kWh of electricity and is planning to start a new energy project in the next 12 months? With over 35 years’ experience in deploying onsite energy infrastructure, we are the right partner to deliver your end-to-end Heat Pump solutions. Tell us about your project by completing our simple form to get the conversation started.

A Heat Pump partnership with Centrica Business Solutions will also mean you benefit from:
* Measured in September 2024, based on the Heat Pump utilising grid electricity with average grid emissions intensities.
We can deliver five different types of Heat Pumps, to suit a range of different business objectives, budgets and site requirements. We specialise in 500kW+ Heat Pump installations, or 250kW+ when the Heat Pump is bundled with other onsite energy generation assets, like Commercial Solar or Combined Heat and Power (CHP).
One of the simplest and most straightforward types of Heat Pumps. Their efficiency is highly dependent on ambient conditions, but it’s possible to increase efficiency by utilising waste heat. They’re often the most cost-effective type of Heat Pump, but deliver more limited carbon savings.
Ground Source Heat Pumps have much stronger seasonal performance than Air Source Heat Pumps. They can also deliver larger carbon reductions. However, since boreholes need to be drilled, their installation can be more disruptive and complex, and the installation can be more expensive.
You can expect to get larger carbon reductions with a Water Source Heat Pump compared to Ground or Air Source. They can also be more cost effective and require less land than a Ground Source Heat Pump. However, there’s no ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach, so their installation may be more complex and time-consuming.
These can achieve very high levels of efficiency, and can deliver the highest carbon reductions of any heat source. It’s also possible to achieve temperatures in excess of 100°C. However, performance is highly dependent on the volume and temperate of waste heat that’s available, so can be intermittent.
Combining 2+ Heat Pump units, Cascade Heat Pumps are scalable and relatively straightforward to install. They can deliver temperatures of up to > 120°C for industrial processes. However their performance is very dependent on ambient conditions, and they can be more expensive and complex to retrofit on existing sites.
The difference between the temperature of your heat source vs. the temperature of the heat you want to produce is the key factor in determining a Heat Pump’s performance, associated carbon emissions, and installation costs. Our expert team will guide you through the best option for your organisation, based on your site limitations and business objectives.
If your organisation does not have available capex to fund your new Heat Pump installation, we offer in-house financing to fund your project. Our Heat-as-a-Service option finances Heat Pumps over a 7-15 year contract.
We offer two options:
