# Zero Waste Scotland Limited
Zero Waste Scotland Limited, based in Edinburgh, operates as a key partner within Scotland's Heat Network Support Unit (HNSU), a Scottish Government-backed initiative dedicated to accelerating large-scale heat network deployment across the country. The organisation works alongside Scottish Futures Trust to address critical barriers in heat network project development and expand public sector capacity for successful implementation.
The business serves local authorities, public sector organisations, and entities developing district and communal heating systems. They provide essential support during pre-capital project stages, helping clients navigate the complex development landscape of heat networks—systems that distribute thermal energy from centralised sources to multiple buildings or building units.
What distinguishes Zero Waste Scotland is their comprehensive, tailored approach combining financial and expert support. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, they assess individual organisational and project needs, ensuring engagement and coordination remain central to their delivery model. Their grant funding covers feasibility studies, outline business cases, and strategic heat network support specifically for local authorities, with additional bespoke support available upon request.
The organisation also demonstrates forward-thinking by exploring innovative delivery models and alternative commercial structures to attract private investment and accelerate market growth. Their involvement in producing strategic reports—such as the Heat Network Delivery Models report—shows commitment to developing evidence-based solutions for scaling heat networks whilst leveraging private sector expertise and resources.
By removing financial and advisory obstacles, Zero Waste Scotland directly enables Scotland's transition towards clean heating infrastructure.
