About our 

heat network
How does hull magic work?
Vital Energi has developed an innovative solution to harness waste heat and transform it into a valuable resource for our communities. Hull MAGIC transforms waste heat into a valuable resource, providing communities with reliable, affordable, and low-carbon heating solutions.

Heat Recovered from Salt End Chemicals Park:
Waste heat from Salt End Chemicals Park, which cannot otherwise be utilised on-site, is captured and repurposed. This recovered energy is the foundation for providing environmentally friendly heating solutions across the network.

Transfer via Pre-Insulated Pipes:
The captured heat is transferred through pre-insulated pipes to an Energy Centre (EC) located at SCP and Yorkshire Energy Park. These pipes ensure minimal heat loss during transit, maintaining energy efficiency from the source to the destination.

Energy Centre at Yorkshire Energy Park:
The Energy Centre will feature substantial thermal storage capacity to maximise heat recovery. This hub at SCP efficiently manages and stores heat, ensuring a steady supply to meet varying energy demands
