The motion

That the Parliament welcomes Abertay University’s plans for a new energy centre and the associated establishment of a wastewater to energy scheme; notes that the university plans to replace existing energy infrastructure with a new system based on sewer-sourced heat technology; understands that this development has the potential to create a much wider heat network for the city, transforming the way that homes are heated, thereby reducing energy bills and climate emissions; applauds Abertay University for focusing on what it sees as this ambitious project, and wishes the institution every success with its activities related to this initiative.
