Reducing our carbon footprint is typically an expensive task requiring extensive capital investment. However installing Minibems onto a heat network typically saves 1 tonne of carbon, per annum, for every apartment it’s fitted into.

With gas prices soaring the opportunity for real and tangible cost savings on heat networks has never been greater.

Minibems can cut an average of 1 tonne of carbon emissions per home per annum – saving you money too. By controlling each apartment with our unique and patented Dynamic flow control system we achieve the savings by optimising flow rates through your HIU.

Across the UK, right now, heat networks are burning through unnecessary gas, squandering precious resources, releasing preventable carbon emissions, and wasting money at a time of an unprecedented cost of living crisis.

Heating is the UK’s biggest source of carbon emissions. Right now, 500,000 UK homes are connected to heat networks that are supposed to be more efficient and generate fewer carbon emissions, but they are wasteful from the point of installation.

Minibems are thrilled to be shortlisted as finalists at the Business Green Technology Awards, which celebrate cutting-edge technologies and innovators that are working to accelerate the transition to a sustainable, low carbon economy.

EDF Energy is committed to promoting the transition to a low carbon and energy abundant future. Alongside other ‘graduates’ at the EDF Energy Pulse Innovation Challenge Demo Day for 2019 EDF introduced Minibems as a best in class innovator.

Many of us enjoy the benefits of an early morning swim at the local leisure centre. Others opt for a more pensive paddle in the evening after work.
