An underground network of pipes will funnel hot water to city centre buildings, plans say
Plans to lay three miles of pipes to funnel green energy to buildings in Bradford have been revealed.
Applicant Bradford Energy Limited said the scheme could heat public buildings, such as the Law Courts and Alhambra Theatre.A new city centre plant would house the air source heat pumps, which would then send the warm water around the area via the subterranean system.BEL said it would help cut carbon emissions generated by city centre buildings, most of which use gas heating.
A second phase would see pipes expanded to cover areas to the north and south of phase one, potentially connecting as far north as Foster Square retail park and south as far as Park Road.
