The partnership will aim to enable businesses to save energy and reduce carbon impact.

Erda Energy noted that a four-year deployment of its technology at a UK food retailer has led to 28,000t of carbon emission reduction and savings of more than 160GWh of energy usage across its 25 stores.

Erda Energy managing director Kevin Stickney said: “The UK is waking up to the opportunities for decarbonising heat, and as policy catches up, businesses will increasingly look for the most cutting-edge solutions to decarbonise energy.

“We saw what the technology had done for existing customers and could immediately see the huge opportunities for us take it to new markets.”

“Geo-exchange not only fits this bill but could also stimulate skilled jobs through growth in the British supply chain.
