The
IHRS
Programme closed to applications in July 2020, and completed in March 2022. The Industrial Heat Recovery Support (
IHRS
) programme was designed to encourage and support investment in heat recovery technologies. This means helping businesses identify and invest in opportunities for recovering and reusing heat that would otherwise be wasted. Recovered waste heat can be used in many ways, helping businesses lower their fuel costs, reduce waste heat and cut emissions. Usage includes:
within the same industrial facility
by another end-user (for example a heat network)
by converting the waste heat to power
The programme objectives were to:
increase industry confidence to invest in technologies to recover heat from industrial processes
increase deployment of such technologies in England and Wales
The programme was split into 2 phases:
Phase 1: conceptualise and define the areas where your business could reuse waste heat; assess costs and benefits
Phase 2: the delivery stage: detailed design, procurement, construction, commissioning, operation start-up and monitoring and evaluation
Projects were funded from 3 different entry points:
feasibility study and preliminary engineering (Phase 1); or
preliminary engineering only (for applicants who have already undertaken a feasibility study independent of the
IHRS
) (Phase 1); or
detailed design and delivery (Phase 2)
