The design, installation, operating, and funding of a district heating system to serve 3,500 homes in Clapham as part of a major regeneration project. The design, installation, and operation of a new city centre wide low carbon district heating system for the City of Cardiff. The design, installation, and operation of a ground source heat pump system to provide heating and cooling to a new development of 300 homes a gym and office building in South London. The design and installation of a heat network in a rural community in Cambridgeshire to replace oil boilers in 300 homes with centralised low carbon heat generation. Developing detailed long-term decarbonisation plans for existing large scale district heating networks to allow them to transition from gas fired CHP led generation to low carbon generation. The Role
Hemiko are seeking a highly flexible, self-starting, post-graduate engineer with demonstrable experience in the design of Mechanical Building Services.
