Low carbon infrastructure experts
Who are we?
Nordic Energy is a multidisciplinary team of technical, digital, commercial and engineering experts taking major renewable energy and decarbonisation projects from opportunity identification through to construction.
Whether we’re delivering zoning pilots, electrification strategies, nature-based solutions, or heat infrastructure, our approach remains the same: one built on clarity, collaboration, and confidence. We ask the right questions early, align policy with delivery realities, and de-risk every step to create infrastructure that lasts.

We believe the suite of tools being developed by Nordic Energy under the Peterborough Accelerated Net Zero (PANZ) project will significantly enhance the ability of Local Authorities to identify and assess decarbonisation opportunities. The tool is designed to integrate well with other systems, including cero.earth, our own sustainability management platform, enabling a seamless, end-to-end solution to support customers on their net-zero journey.

Our work is shaped by three guiding principles. People. Planet. Profit.
People.
Net-zero infrastructure doesn’t exist in a vacuum. It affects homes, schools, hospitals, and public spaces. That’s why we map stakeholders from day one - residents, regulators, delivery partners - and integrate their perspectives early. No surprises at planning. No engagement left to chance.
Planet.
We’re driving the shift to low-carbon, decentralised energy systems. That includes working with ambient heat, mine water, wastewater, biomass, and other renewables. But it also means integrating biodiversity, circular economy principles, and nature-based design into every project we deliver.
Profit.
Infrastructure must work financially as well as environmentally. Our teams build investable propositions from the ground up - combining technical insight, policy foresight, and deep financial modelling. We help clients move from funding gap to financial close with
The time to act is now!
If we don’t, when building net-zero infrastructure, we'll be facing more than just climate damage. Creating secure, low-carbon energy infrastructure that enables economic growth and promotes social stability is very achievable, you just need the right toolkit.

Our approach brings together three core strengths: our philosophy, our people, and our insights, to deliver projects that are innovative, practical, and durable.
The speed and accuracy of Nordic Energy's 3D interactive, photorealistic modelling tool amazes us. Previously, in Bochum, we had to rely on different models and algorithms to achieve similar results. As the modelling was therefore not compiled from one, but from several sources, the derivation ultimately took longer, and the results were less informative. Nordic Energy's tool, on the other hand, generates initial plausible approaches for heating networks with an initial assessment of economic findings in a matter of seconds, and can therefore be a very good starting point for further detailed planning. Thanks to the fully photorealistic cityscape, detailed boundary conditions such as the location and influence of trees can be taken into account, which can significantly increase planning accuracy. This capability could transform our future approach and enable us to quickly capture potential scenarios with efficiency, which could significantly accelerate stakeholder engagement and project progression through the planning stages.
For several years, we have worked closely with Nordic Energy on the D2Grids North West Europe Interreg project, where an earlier version of their 3D interactive tool successfully helped to identify opportunities for 5th generation heat networks.

As a result, I’ve always had an approach to energy which included economics, environmental sustainability and the security of supply.
I am passionate about all things connected with sustainability. A few years ago, I bought some farmland, on which we are slowly integrating regenerative agriculture practices. I have worked on quite a few projects now that are merging agriculture, transport, electricity and heat, so there is no doubt that energy underpins everything. I love to work at this intersection of different industries at a time when our energy landscape is completely transforming."
Mark Woodward
Director
This gave me the opportunity to re-evaluate our home’s sustainability and energy efficiency.
I upgraded the fabric of the building with floor, wall and roof internal insulation and replaced the oil boiler with ground source heat pumps. We are ‘all electric’, generating our own supply from two wind turbines, a solar PV array and battery storage, which also supply the electricity for our EV. Grid back-up electricity provides approximately a quarter of our total electricity demand; meanwhile, we export around 3 times more electricity than we purchase from the grid.
We have extensive annual and perennial food gardens which supply the majority of our vegetables and fruit. Other areas of the land have been developed into wildlife areas and a woodland, with one of the fields used by a local community charity as a tree nursery.
As at home, my work focus is to help the UK develop more resource-efficient and sustainable energy infrastructure that delivers security, affordability and resilience.
Our highly talented Nordic Energy team use their diverse, complementary skills to implement this vision."

...It was exciting to see it in action!
I worked on many energy and retrofit projects during my time in local government in Nottingham. This brought me some awards, such as the Energy Live Tech Genius Award and the Association for Decentralised Energy Innovation Award.
The retrofit challenge of UK homes and businesses is a difficult one. I am passionate about using artificial intelligence and machine learning to significantly lower the costs and improve the quality of retrofit at a large scale."

"I got into energy in the early 2000s when I worked for the Ministry of Defence.
One defence scenario was an assault on our centralised energy infrastructure. This was the first work project that I got really excited about, and I went on to study sustainable energy, while also qualifying in accountancy As a result, I’ve always had an approach to energy which included economics, environmental sustainability and the security of supply.

"It was 20 years ago when we moved into our home, an 18th-century farmhouse and smallholding on the outskirts of Sheffield and the Peak District..
It was beautiful but cold and expensive to run. At the time, I was working as a part-time education consultant and the main daytime carer for our children. This gave me the opportunity to re-evaluate our home’s sustainability and energy efficiency.

"I am a geek. I love technology, and I love to make things. For example, when my son had to build a rocket for a school project.
Well, it just so happens that I did a Master’s degree in spacecraft technology and communications. So we built a proper rocket. It didn’t make it to the moon, but it was exciting to see it in action.
I worked on many energy and retrofit projects during my time in local government in Nottingham. This brought me some awards, such as the Energy Live Tech Genius Award and the Association for Decentralised Energy Innovation Award.

Nordic Energy’s 3D interactive modelling heat network tool provides a very effective way for Local Authorities and Developers to quickly assess the potential for a heat network in a given area, in a relatively short timeframe, by focusing on areas of key existing heat demand and effective and efficient route options, therefore helping to build the case for a deliverable scheme.
