A new method of low-temperature heating system makes it possible to reduce energy use by at least 30% and shortens the payoff time for housing cooperatives.
In the Netherlands the KoWaNet project has tested local low temperature networks in order to make heating and cooling of Dutch buildings carbon neutral.
The digitalisation process in society means new business models for heat pumps as well as the need for further development of integrated solutions. European Heat Pump Association, EHPA has provided an overview on the subject.
Energy providers and property owners can both benefit from an innovative cooling concept based on the utilization of the flexibility in district heating systems, and in particular by harvesting excess heat from a cooling process. A Berlin demo case is presented from the Flexi-Sync project.
The combination of district heating and heat pumps are foreseen to have a key role in the future district heating systems. This article looks at the integration of large-scale heat pumps in district heating, which can help balancing the power grid when the production of electricity from intermittent renewable energy sources fluctuates.
This study is investigating how Swedish energy prices are influenced by the owner of the energy network – a private or a municipal company.
This article describes the refrigeration industry from an environmental point of view and argues for phasing out refrigerators with gases that contribute to global warming.
This text describes Friendly Sam, a toolbox developed to formulate optimisation-based models of energy systems.
The HeatNet NWE project aims to introduce 4DHC (4th generation District Heating) in North West Europe. Here are six guides from the project.
This handbook from the Upgrade DH project describes technical and non-technical approaches for upgrading existing systems.
This article is based on a webinar within the project Flexi-Sync and describes the approach taken in the project to optimise district energy flexibility.
