About Nesta

Nesta is an innovation foundation. For us, innovation means turning bold ideas into reality and changing lives for the better. We use our expertise, skills and funding in areas where there are big challenges facing society.

Developing more incisive policy asks around clean heat neighbourhood planning.

Could planning the transition to low-carbon heat at a local level support householders, the supply chain and other key stakeholders in this process? What does a local heat plan need to include, how do you create one and when do you engage with different stakeholders? We'll work through these questions in partnership with Plymouth City Council by creating a draft clean heat plan for a complex area.
