Agenda item

To receive the report of the Project Officer.

The Committee received the report of the Project Officer concerning case studies for Fuel CHP boilers at Burwell Hall.

In response to a representation from another Member the committee discussed the merits of Fuel CHP heating system. The committee had previously resolved to proceed with this new and untested technology at its meeting on 23 May 2022.

Although there were some reservations members agreed that the decision should not be altered due to the significantly higher cost of alternative solutions. To delay could impede the Burwell Hall changing rooms project and suggested funding support from the Government decarbonisation scheme was not guaranteed.

Resolved:

1.      That, the documents, and links provided be noted and,

2.      That, the council progressing with the installation of Fuel CHP boiler at Burwell Hall.
