The Edinburgh Local Heat and Energy Efficiency Strategy (LHEES) sets out a strategic approach which addresses all buildings in the Edinburgh area, from the Council's own estate to private homes and workplaces.
The Delivery Plan, which concentrates on actions between 2024 and 2028, sets out short to medium term actions associated with the implementation of the Edinburgh LHEES.

Among the actions are piloting the installation of heat pumps in specially selected areas of Edinburgh, formally designating “heat network zones” in Edinburgh, and increasing solar installations across the city.
The consultation, which closes on Sunday 3 March, will build on the engagement and consultation carried out to date.
Council Leader Cammy Day said: "We've extended the deadline for our consultation to make sure everyone has their say on our exciting plans to decarbonise the heat supply of buildings and improve energy efficiency.
"We've set the ambitious target to become a net zero city by 2030 and, although we're making good progress, this plan will help us continue to lead the way in our efforts.
"The plan is relevant to all owners and occupiers of Edinburgh's buildings so it's important that everyone has their say. I would urge everyone who is yet to do so to visit our website and follow the necessary steps to share their feedback."
