    Scotland’s Heat Network Fund (SHNF) offers capital grants to businesses and organisations in the public, private and third sectors to develop heat network projects.

    It aims to support the roll-out of zero emission district heat networks and communal heating systems.

    SHNF supports:

    • New low or zero direct emissions district heat networks or communal heating systems
    • The expansion of existing district or communal heating systems where the heat demand of the extension as a minimum is supplied by a low or zero direct emissions heat source
    • The decarbonisation of existing district heat networks or communal heating systems where a zero direct emissions heat source replaces an existing polluting heat source
