🔋 How do you decarbonise heating for nearly 300 social housing flats without disrupting people’s lives?

This was our challenge for Thurrock Council: bringing sustainable heat to three 1960s tower blocks, each housing almost 100 flats.

The solution? Replacing outdated electric night storage heaters with Kensa's innovative networked heat pump solution, powered by the Kensa Shoebox. 🌱

We're incredibly proud of this project, which has:
✅ Reduced carbon emissions
✅ Lowered energy bills for residents
✅ Created a scalable model for decarbonising similar buildings (yes, even ones thought unreachable by heat pumps!)

In BusinessGreen, our Sustainability Director, Ieman Barmaki dives into the details of this life-changing green heating legacy in Thurrock.

🎉 Award-Winning Innovation! 🎉

We’re excited to share that Kensa has won Innovator of the Year - Independent at Inside Housings UK Housing Awards for our Networked Heat Pump Solution!

This recognition feels especially meaningful on National Energy Action (NEA) . Our solution is making a real difference—helping to reduce fuel poverty by providing a low-cost, sustainable heating, while driving the transition to Net Zero.

The judges said: "One of the biggest challenges for the sector is the transition to zero carbon, and Kensa’s networked ground source heat pumps represent a real innovation in this field. This is particularly exciting for social landlords with blocks of flats, looking for retrofit heat pump options that are truly economical for residents."

🌍 Big opportunities for electrically heated tower blocks!

Wave 3 of the WH:SHF funding is here, offering a huge opportunity for tower blocks with high energy costs and carbon emissions. Many of these buildings rely on outdated, inefficient heating systems, which burden residents with high bills and leave a heavy carbon footprint.

The Solution? Networked Heat Pumps!

Our advanced networked heat pump systems, powered by ground source technology and shared ground loops, are three times more efficient than traditional gas boilers. With this upgrade:

🔋 Energy costs drop dramatically for landlords and residents
💚 Carbon emissions are significantly reduced
🏠 Each home gets its own reliable heat pump, allowing for independent control—all without the need for new electricity meters!
Landlords, take the step toward a sustainable, cost-effective future for your residents and community.
