The project involves building a new underground network of pipes to supply low carbon heat to a range of business, community, public sector and domestic customers in the centre of Glenrothes.
A local biomass CHP plant owned and operated by RWE will provide heat in the form of hot water.

As part of the project, eight trial pits and ten bore holes will be formed at various locations throughout the centre of the town from 31 July.
These works will identify the location of existing utility services so the energy network pipework avoids them and will establish general ground conditions along the proposed route of the network.
Fife Council said: "Some of the works may require partial closure of some roads for short periods of time. We'll try to keep any disturbance to a minimum but would like to apologise in advance for any inconvenience and delay caused by the works. Your patience and co-operation during this time is greatly appreciated."
