“It’s big and light - what an incredible achievement.”
“An absolutely wonderful building.”
“It’s a credit to the village.”
“It’s fantastic - so light and airy.”

Just a few of the comments shared during the Opening Weekend of the Chinley Community Centre - and we couldn’t agree more.

Ouseburn Trust is committed to reducing its carbon footprint and is actively developing the Ouseburn Regeneration Strategy 2020-30.

With the UK government softening its stance on the Gas Boiler Ban, many in the Heat Network sector are wondering - has this slowed down progress?

The UK’s journey towards net zero by 2050 is accelerating, and district heating is playing a key role.

At D3A, we've been attending several community energy workshops in our hometown of Hexham, Northumberland.

We love this video case study produced by the North East & Yorkshire Net Zero Hub.

With our client, the Yorkshire North & East Methodist District, still firmly focused on their target to be entirely Net Zero by 2040, we carried out site visits to progress Decarbonisation works at three churches in Harrogate and Knaresborough.

As we tackle climate change and work towards net-zero emissions, district energy systems offer a really powerful solution for our cities.

The D3A team got to let off some steam on Friday. For our autumn social, we headed to Game of Throwing to try our hands at Axe Throwing.

Meet Conor! He’s a recent graduate from Manchester University, where he earned his MEng in Chemical Engineering. We’re excited to welcome him as the newest member of the D3A Energy team! As a Graduate Engineer, Conor will be diving into decarbonisation plans and helping design heat network systems and energy centres.

Great news!! In Round 6 of the Government’s Heat Network Efficiency Scheme (HNES), another £2.7 million has been awarded to 33 heat networks across England & Wales. This includes 2 schemes that the D3A Energy team have been supporting.

Some of the targeted outputs from our latest decarbonisation project - Pathway to Net Zero for Methodist Churches - working with Yorkshire North & East Methodist District

Loads of progress on site at the Chinley & Buxworth Community Centre.

Imagine a town or city sharing one huge boiler or air conditioner. Instead of each building needing its own heating and cooling units, they’re all connected to a central energy plant, making good use of renewable energy sources and creating less pollution.

Welcome to our new recruit - Joe Thompson - who's joining D3A as a Graduate Engineer. Joe served for 6 years in the Royal Marines before completing a degree in Architectural Engineering at the University of Leeds.

Since the tragic events at Grenfell Tower, seven years ago, the spotlight was rightly turned onto the fire safety issues surrounding the cladding of buildings.

It might be midsummer but the d3a team decided to head underground for this year’s Summer Social.

The D3A Energy Team have been working with Westmorland & Furness Council to help them reach their net zero carbon emissions target by 2037.

14 months ago we started with a blank sheet of paper and now we have a brand new sustainable youth centre for the young people of Shotton.

The search is on... the d3associates team are looking for highly motivated engineers to help deliver a diverse range of energy projects across the UK.
