Carbon Reduction

Speldiburn Green energy and heating project 2020-21

Plans are well advanced for a new heating system which will cut BDL's CO2 emmissions, reduce our heating costs and ensure Speldiburn volunteers and customers can be warm during the winter months.

The plan includes: -

• Removal of all storage heaters which will be replaced by air source heat units
• The addition of extra loft insulation into the old part of the building (the only part with loft space)
• 40 solar panels added to the roof of the wooden extension
