Kensa’s latest product innovation, the Shoebox NX, offers a single solution to take on your energy efficiency challenge. Punching above its weight, this little heat pump can lift a social housing property’s EPC by up to two bands, even if no other energy efficiency measures are included in your programme.
A compact powerhouse with quiet operation and a 25+ year lifespan, the Shoebox NX is five times more efficient than a gas boiler and offers a one-stop-shop solution to meet your tower block decarbonisation goals.
See the benefits of the Shoebox NXA new surge of funding is on the horizon; Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund (SHDF) Wave 3 is set to hit this summer! The government has allocated £1.2 billion to lift 140,000 additional social homes to EPC C or above.
Wave 3 is intended to be more straightforward and flexible, enabling the inclusion of clean heat in ‘complex-to-decarbonise’ homes.

When paired with Shared Ground Loops—a modern-day, renewable alternative to traditional heating—individual ground source heat pumps can reduce heating bills and eradicate expensive heat losses that often come with centralised systems.
They operate efficiently all year round, keeping homes consistently comfortable. Tenants can individually control their heating and energy bills and only have to pay for their own heat consumption.
What are SGLs?Kensa is actively working to install Networked Heat Pump solutions across the UK with award-winning heat pump products, market-leading installation delivery services, and innovative funding offers.
In ten years, we are proud to have delivered nationwide tower block decarbonisation programmes, including large-scale ones in Sunderland, Ealing, Essex, Enfield, and Croydon.

Thurrock Council secured £3.2 million from Wave 1 of the Government’sSocial Housing Decarbonisation Fund (SHDF) to help finance a ground source heat pump retrofit project that reduced fuel bills by over 50% for residents and provided a 70%+ reduction in carbon emissions.
273 storage heaters across three tower blocks in Chadwell St Mary’s, Thurrock, were replaced with Kensa ground source heat pumps in 3 months, which deliver three times more energy efficiency for the residents.

Together, Kensa and ENGIE delivered England’s largest shared ground loop array heat pump programme for Enfield Council. Eight tower blocks with a total of 400 flats had their electric heating replaced with ground source heat pumps in under one year, with tenants remaining in their flats.
The multi-award-winning project has reduced tenants’ energy bills from an average of £800 per year to an average of £350 and is estimated to save 773tCO2 over the course of the heat pumps’ lifetime.

364 ground source heat pumps were installed by Kensa into seven tower blocks in Sunderland as part of an ambitious programme by the Gentoo Group. Along with changing building regulations and environmental concerns encouraging a move away from fossil fuels, the gas boilers in the tower blocks were at the end of their useful life.
Kensa Shoebox ground source heat pumps installed inside each flat and connected to a shared ground loop array closely mimicked their existing system, with equivalent running costs, AND reduced carbon emissions by an enormous 70%.
