Heat Demand of Properties (50m Grid) - Scotland

The Scotland Heat Map provides estimates of annual heat demand for almost 3 million properties in Scotland. Demand is given in kilowatt-hours per year (kWh/yr). Property level estimates can be combined to give values for various geographies. Both domestic and non-domestic properties are included. This raster dataset gives the total estimated heat demand of properties within 50m x 50m grid squares covering all of Scotland. Heat demand is calculated by combining data from a number of sources, ensuring that the most appropriate data available is used for each property. The data can be used by local authorities and others to identify or inform opportunities for low carbon heat projects such as district heat networks. The Scotland Heat Map is produced by the Scottish Government and aims to provide annual updates of estimates.
