Rural Energy Hubs Project

农村能源中心项目建立在数十年的经验基础上，在奥克尼和设得兰群岛联合工作并提供创新的低碳项目。它采用基于地方的示范方法来克服非技术障碍，以加速脱碳。在整个能源系统中集成了七个工作包，以展示如何通过在农村能源中心建立当地主导的协调行动来开发，嵌入和加速脱碳，提供创新和实用的焦点，以推动个人，企业和地方当局的脱碳，最大限度地提高社会，该项目汇集了来自净零生活奥克尼和设得兰群岛农村能源中心项目的工作和合作伙伴，这些项目是净零生活项目第一阶段的工作和合作伙伴。生活：开拓者安置方案。这两项研究都建立在来自IUK PFER示范项目ReFLEX Orkney的学习和挑战的基础上，该项目是一项雄心勃勃的面向消费者的社区主导的创新综合服务计划，遇到了重大的非技术障碍。金融，监管，电网容量，资源，行为变化和缺乏数据：已制定了影响力大的产出，以涵盖能源系统的所有模式：* 运输-为地方当局车队提供创新的电动解决方案，包括大型机动车辆，整合以需求为导向的社区管理服务，移动即服务（MaaS）平台和分布式充电基础设施，农村地区财务上可持续的汽车俱乐部模式，客运船舶和重型无人机的海上（电力）和航空（氢气）脱碳试验，以及跨社区运输脱碳的整体，全系统规划。供热--为农村社区提供区域供热解决方案，在家庭和社区场所进行更智能的监测，以推动行为改变，制定建筑改造护照计划，通过家庭和办公室脱碳的各个方面为用户提供支持。电力-发展负担得起的模式，以可再生能源发电和电池解决方案支持个人、社区和企业;包括将能源发电和储存纳入农村能源中心，这些基于模式的创新活动将相互联系，以便在设得兰群岛的Brae建立第一个试点农村能源中心;展示我们完全集成的、本地的、基于位置的解决方案的交付。学习将结合到英国范围的复制计划中，该项目采用了一系列基于地点的商业模式，以确保最大限度地利用。合作伙伴是Aquatera（AQT）（牵头）、奥克尼群岛理事会（OIC）、设得兰群岛理事会（SIC）、欧洲海洋能源中心（EMEC）和苏格兰社区能源中心（CES）。这个精心挑选的团队汇集了解决脱碳非技术障碍的重要现实经验，并成功交付了这种性质的雄心勃勃的项目。

The Rural Energy Hubs project builds upon decades of experience, joint working and delivering innovative low-carbon projects in Orkney and Shetland. It embraces a place-based demonstration approach to overcoming non-technical barriers to accelerate decarbonisation. Seven work packages integrated across the energy system to demonstrate how decarbonisation can be developed, embedded and accelerated by establishing locally-led coordinated action in Rural Energy Hubs, providing innovative and practical focal-points to drive decarbonisation for individuals, businesses and local authorities, maximising social, economic and environmental benefits.This project brings together work and partners from the Net Zero Living Orkney and Shetland Rural Energy Hubs projects in Phase 1 of the Net Zero Living: Pathfinder Places programme. Both studies built on learning and challenges from the IUK PFER demonstration project ReFLEX Orkney, an ambitious programme of innovative integrated consumer-facing community-led services that encountered significant non-technical barriers.This Phase 2 project seeks innovative solutions to key non-technical barriers: finance, regulation, grid capacity, resource, behavioural change and lack of data.High-impact outputs have been developed to encompass all modalities of the energy system:* Transport -- innovative electric solutions for local authority fleets including large mobility vehicles, integrating demand-led community-managed services, a Mobility as a Service (MaaS) platform and distributed charging infrastructure, financially sustainable car club models for rural areas, maritime (electric) and aviation (hydrogen) decarbonisation trials for passenger vessel and heavy-lift drones, plus holistic, system-wide planning for decarbonisation of transport across communities.* Heat -- district heating solutions for rural communities, smarter monitoring in domestic and community premises to drive behaviour change, development of the Building Renovation Passport programme to support users through all aspects of decarbonising homes and offices.* Power -- developing affordable models of supporting individuals, communities and businesses with renewable generation and battery solutions; including incorporating energy generation and storage into Rural Energy Hubs.These mode-based innovation activities will be linked together to allow the setup of the first pilot Rural Energy Hub, in Brae, Shetland; showcasing delivery of our fully integrated, local, placed-based solutions.Learning will be combined into a UK-wide replication plan, which incorporates a range of place-based business models to ensure maximum uptake.The partners are Aquatera (AQT) (lead), Orkney Islands Council (OIC), Shetland Islands Council (SIC), the European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC), and Community Energy Scotland (CES). This hand-picked team brings together significant real-world experience of addressing non-technical barriers to decarbonisation and successfully delivering ambitious projects of this nature.
