ADE is your voice to Government. We’re the go to trade association for the decarbonisation of British heat through heat networks and creating a demand-led power system which brings households and businesses more into the energy system.

We have two functions – ADE: Demand and ADE: Heat Networks.

ADE: Demand

Our vision, and what ADE: Demand exists to make happen, is no less than a complete re-imagining of the role of demand in our energy system so that:
Demand is given equal consideration to generation
Every household, commercial business and industrial site has a commercially viable path to decarbonisation
It is recognised that energy users and their assets have a day job – they shouldn’t have to work around the energy system, the energy system should work around them
Millions of users with automated energy provision can play a major part in keeping the lights on.

Join over 150 member organisations to help us advocate for an energy system that is demand-led.

ADE: Heat Networks
Heat networks are the proven path to decarbonising our towns and cities at scale.

The Government is bringing forward a framework that will regulate the sector for the first time, spatial planning to support large-scale heat network development and an effective ban on the use of natural gas in new build homes. However, heat decarbonisation remains difficult with the cost of low carbon heat (often using electricity) still higher than gas and progress on heat decarbonisation needs to happen now if we are to meet our legally binding carbon targets.

ADE: Heat Networks exists to make sure low carbon heat networks play their rightful role in the energy transition and the UK seizes the opportunity to grow this market from 3% today to more than 20% by 2050.
