07.08.2020 Industrial excess heat for district heating: Database shows great potential for supplying households
Excess heat from energy-intensive industries is often suitable for use in district heating systems but is usually unutilized. A detailed overview of the potentials available in the EU is now provided by a database of the sEEnergies project. In Germany, 29 petajoules of excess heat from industrial sites could be used, which corresponds to the demand of more than half a million households. The information is available as maps and downloadable datasets.

How will energy demand develop in the future? What are the impacts of
new policies, changing economic structures or prices? How will the introduction
of new technologies affect demand and also
CO2
emissions? If you are interested in these kinds of questions, we can help you find
the answers.
We provide customized studies of future energy demand trends for
countries and regions using the tried and tested models FORECAST and eLOAD
based on calibrated databases.
