There are really good objectives and policy in this area but it seems we have been poor at delivery. For example, a huge number of data centres have been constructed but we have not realised the potential for district heating from that in terms of the heat generated. Is there something missing that needs to be in the NPF to ensure we start delivering on making use of excess heat from data centres and other potential sources? There is something missing in that we have good policy and aspirations but they are not being delivered in a number of instances.
