Helping to deliver sustainable district heating with Clyde Gateway Developments Limited

We supported Clyde Gateway on the delivery of a district heating masterplan for the Dalmarnock regeneration area and the development of a new, innovative 5G ambient heat network as part of the D2 Grids Project.

Key highlights

• Assisting with business case development.
• Advising on procurement and state aid.
• Drafting construction and operations contracts.
• Advising on land rights.
• Advising on energy regulation and statutory powers.
• Drafting customer heat supply agreements.

Outcome

For this project, we had to look beyond the legal rights and bring our market insight, policy development and practical experience., We also brought a breadth of experience to support on all aspects of the project including public law, corporate law, subsidy control, real estate, construction and finance.

This project is particularly relevant at a time when the delivery of a new innovative low carbon district energy is crucial to achieve climate change targets and secure economic benefit to local areas.
