Efficiency
What is the role of district heating in the future energy system?
Projects
UpgradeDH
The Upgrade DH project aims to improve the performance of district heating networks in Europe by supporting selected demonstration cases for upgrading, which can be replicated in Europe.
sEEnergies
sEEnergies is a European Horizon2020 project with the overall aim to answer those questions. It quantifies and operationalizes the potential for energy efficiency in buildings, transport, and industry, considering all aspects of the Energy Efficiency First Principle.

Publications
D2.1 REWARDHeat planning schemes database
The deliverable serves as a database for literature review and best practice examples for ultra-low and neutral temperature district heating and cooling networks. Firstly, it provides detailed overview of existing knowledge and published research papers on the different related topics such as: renewable and urban waste heat sources, supply technologies, thermal networks, and end-user substations. Then, the overview of existing next-generation networks is presented, while focusing on their characteristics such as temperature regimes, thermal sources, network topology, etc. This information is organised as a publicly available database hosted on Zenodo platform, available on this link.
