Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust

The hospital has a heat requirement of approximately 30GWhrs per annum which is expected to be fully served by a geothermal plant. As we approach the end of the Feasibility stage, the team are preparing indicative commercial terms for the supply of heat on a long term basis, which (if accepted) will be followed by applications for planning consents and securing of necessary permits for operation, detailed design and procurement. Based on current indications of timing, construction of a new well site might start as early as late 2025 with heat available to the Hospital in early 2027.

The project team and the Trust are currently reviewing the potential for grant applications to the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme and/or the Green Heat Network Fund.
