From Waste to Worth: Innovative Waste Heat Recovery Solutions in DHC

11 April 2024
05:00 – 07:00

While excess heat could meet most of the EU heat demand for buildings and hot water, it remains the largest untapped source of energy. Join us for our upcoming online webinar where we explore Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) in inspiring District Heating and Cooling (DHC) projects and the important role it should play in the green transition. We’ll showcase innovative successful cases across Europe highlighting WHR’s potential in optimizing energy efficiency and sustainability in urban environments.

Our panel will present examples illustrating how WHR systems utilize thermal energy from different sources, such as excess heat from data centers, to heat and cool spaces via DHC networks and their connection with heat pumps. Gain insights into implementation strategies, operational benefits, and environmental impacts through the presentation of concrete success stories.

Whether you’re a professional in the heating sector, an urban planner, or an energy enthusiast, this webinar will help you deepen your understanding of WHR’s role in shaping district heating and cooling systems.

The webinar is organized in the framework of REWARDHeat, an EU project funded under the Horizon 2020 programme.
