034/2018 CHP Procurement Programme

UWE Bristol is committed to an ambitious carbon management plan with a key project in our programme being the installation of a low carbon heat network serving a number of existing and future buildings on Frenchay campus. The installation of the heat network pipework infrastructure commenced in 2016 as part of a wider redevelopment of the \"campus heart-zone\".
