Japanese industrial company Daikin has signed a deal with northern England's Greater Manchester region to deploy heat pumps in some of its public buildings and act as a test bed for the technology, the company told Reuters exclusively.
"The two parties' intentions were aligned and they recognised each other as the most suitable partners, leading to the conclusion of this agreement."
"Obviously with that ambition around 2038, we're a place that's going to move faster. In doing so that presents opportunities to organisations like Daikin," Burnham said.Under the agreement, Daikin will also establish a training programme in Manchester for heating and cooling system skills that are in short supply in Britain.
Liverpool plans to become a global leader in tidal energy, while the north east already has a large wind energy industry. "Having access to that wealth of talent I think is a big attraction," said Jo Ahmed, a partner at accountants Deloitte and an honorary consul of Japan in Manchester.
