 A 'candidate' site is very simply defined as a port city or conurbation with an urban population of about 130,000 or more. Ports - obviously - being a prerequisite for bringing in a ship. The minimum population is necessary to keep the capital cost per household ''for the ship'' within reason and an adequate population density aids the economics of the ''district heating network''

 Rolling out a new district heating network across a whole city amounts to laying a distribution network of index runs and branches for two well-insulated hot water pipes (flow and return) to the threshold of every property. To get a capital cost estimate, the total length of all roads and streets in each of the 22 candidate cities was determined and the unit rate of £1 million per kilometre applied. This cost is taken from a report in [http://www.recyclingwasteworld.co.uk/in-depth-article/when-sel-finally-got-its-chp-the-launch/71191/ Recycling Waste World] 06 December 2013 covering the South East London Combined Heat and Power (SELCHP) project. As an added bonus/incentive at the same time the hot water pipework is laid, '''fibre optic cable could be provided delivering ultra-fast broadband to all the properties in the scheme''', for a very small additional marginal cost

 Regarding ''heat'' production, installing a city-wide district heating network would be disruptive and consumers would have to convert from their existing heating systems. Therefore the heat would be offered at a ''TWO-THIRDS DISCOUNT'' to cheapest competitive fuel (gas) so 1p/kW-h or '''£10 per MW-h'''.
