Mechanical & Electrical (M&E)

M&E delivery for heat networks – from energy centre to end user.

Heatiliti is directly contracted as principal M&E designer and installer for communal and district heat network projects across the UK.

We design, install and commission the mechanical, electrical, controls and commissioning packages that turn a heat-network design into a safe, efficient and maintainable operating system - coordinating every critical interface between generation, distribution, controls and customer systems.

How we work

As principal M&E designer and installer, Heatiliti holds direct responsibility for delivery - designing and installing the mechanical, electrical and controls scope, and coordinating the specialist civils, trenching and buried-pipework packages that connect an energy centre to every building it serves. There are no project-size, technology or sector limits on the projects we take on, from single-building schemes to multi-plot developments.

Why Heatiliti

Delivering M&E for a heat network is not the same as delivering it for a single building - every interface between generation, distribution, controls and the end customer has to work together, for decades, not just at handover. Our teams design, install and commission energy centres, substations and HIUs as a connected system, so the network that gets handed over performs the way it was designed to.
