Government Heat Network Training
Guru Systems are proud to have been selected by DESNZ as a Heat Network Training Provider. This allows us to offer fully grant-funded heat network training at no extra cost.
Our three courses are specifically designed to address the clear skills and knowledge gaps within the UK’s heat network sector, focusing on three critical areas aligned with our proposed courses: utilising energy performance data for heat network optimisation, developing metering and monitoring strategies, and specific challenges in metering ambient loop heat networks.
Each course is structured to provide theoretical knowledge and practical applications, enabling you to put into practice what you have learned immediately. These can be provided face-to-face or online depending on requirements and group size.
Who is it for?
Our courses are designed to benefit a diverse range of professionals involved in the heat network sector in the UK, aiming to enhance their skills and knowledge in specific, critical areas of heat network management. These include:
- Engineers and Technical Professionals
- Utility Managers
- Facility Managers and Building Operators
- Energy Consultants
- Local Authority Representatives and Housing Association Staff
- Sustainability Officers
Our Courses
How to Meter Ambient Loop Heat Networks
Our ambient loop course is for those designing or operating ambient loop heat networks, focusing on the unique challenges of metering systems with distributed heat pumps. This course provides practical guidance on selecting appropriate metering technologies, implementing them effectively, and using the gathered data to optimise system performance.
With these skills, you can enhance the accuracy and efficiency of the metering processes in ambient loop systems. This knowledge allows for better resource management and helps develop more sustainable, efficient heating solutions.
Developing a Heat Network Metering Strategy
This course emphasises the strategic design and implementation of metering systems in heat networks. Professionals will gain insights into enhancing cost efficiency, ensuring information security, and achieving regulatory compliance through tailored metering solutions. Heating and energy sector professionals, including utility managers and engineers, would benefit from this course.
You will be able to develop and implement metering strategies that not only comply with regulations but also promote cost savings and operational effectiveness. You will also be equipped to handle security and privacy concerns associated with data handling.
Using Energy Performance Data to Optimise Heat Networks
This introductory course equips engineers, facility managers, energy consultants, and industry professionals with the skills to use energy performance data to improve the efficiency of heat networks. Participants will learn to analyse data to enhance system operations and address inefficiencies.
Equipped with these skills, you will be able to implement strategies that significantly reduce heat losses, lower costs, and enhance the sustainability of heat networks. The analytical skills gained will enable you for better decision-making based on quantitative data.
