The performance issues on heat networks are often poorly understood. This can lead to ongoing reliability and performance issues associated with limited understanding of the information required to identify and resolve the issues.Ultimately, this can cause substantial ongoing performance issues, leading to high heat costs, high maintenance costs and unhappy customers.FairHeat provides you with the visibility and understanding of your network’s performance by:
Reviewing existing documentation and data, in order to identify potential areas of concern. Conducting site audits of the main energy centre, communal systems and dwellings. Producing a report to document the current performance of the heat network and highlight any potential root causes of any reliability issues or sub-optimal performance. Development of metrics, targets and KPIs for the performance improvements.
Heat network performance is not typically analysed rigorously, which means that the root causes of issues are typically not fully understood by clients. As the heat network performance is not analysed, it is difficult to assess the benefits of resolving the identified performance issues. FairHeat is renowned for its use of heat meter and BMS data in investigating heat network performance to identify the root causes for performance issues. Furthermore, FairHeat, uses this data to develop a heat network model to assess the current performance of the heat network and also assess the impact of intervention measures on the heat network performance. This provides greater assurance that the proposed measures will result in cost-effective measures being undertaken.
FairHeat works with clients to develop several intervention work packages focused on addressing the root causes of sub-optimal performance and optimising the performance of the heat network. These work packages will be assessed based on the estimated impact on the agreed performance metrics and KPIs. FairHeat produces a scope of works for selected work packages, with high level improvement design. Furthermore, FairHeat reviews the Contractor tender and management of rollout of interventions, with verification.
Using the information gathered during the Performance Audit and Performance Analysis of the heat network, FairHeat can undertake a detailed financial analysis of any proposed improvement measures. FairHeat recognises that there are many social costs such as carbon emissions, air quality and resident health impacts such as overheating to consider. Therefore, these can also be costed and used to define the optimum intervention package for the client.FairHeat allows clients to justify performance improvement measures by developing a fully costed business cases for the proposed interventions using financial modelling (NPV and IRR) and a sensitivity analysis on the relevant parameters.
Once cost-effective intervention measures have been identified, FairHeat can support the development of a fully costed Business Case that can be used internally within the client organization to secure funding and support for the performance improvement works. FairHeat allows clients to justify performance improvement measures by developing a fully costed business cases for the proposed interventions using financial modelling (NPV and IRR) and a sensitivity analysis on the relevant parameters which are bespoke to the individual organization.
When you have several existing heat networks it can be difficult to assess their current performance and to prioritise which networks require attention.FairHeat can support in the analysis of heat network portfolios to determine the optimal approach in addressing heat network performance. This includes assessing data quality, how data is used and analysed, development of performance metrics to tackle priority issues, and producing a strategy paper for internal use.
