Summary

The Scotland Heat Map includes information on the percentage of households in each 2011 Data Zone that are renting their home from a council or a housing association (socially renting). Alongside other heat map datasets, this data is used to identify areas suitable for measures to reduce carbon emissions from heating homes and other buildings. For example, through the creation of heat networks. The 2011 Census provides the total number of households and the number of socially rented households in each 2011 Data Zone. Scotland’s census is carried out by National Records of Scotland. Boundaries for Data Zones are created by the Scottish Government. Census data and Data Zone boundaries are updated approximately every 10 years.

The Scotland Heat Map is a tool to help plan for the reduction of carbon emissions from heat in buildings. More information can be found in the documentation available on the Scottish Government website: https://www.gov.scot/publications/scotland-heat-map-documents/

The Scotland’s Census website provides details on how the census is carried out and information on accessing publicly available census data, including geographical areas: https://www.scotlandscensus.gov.uk/
