Digitalization of district heating and cooling systems

open access: yesEnergy Reports, 2021
District heating and cooling (DHC) networks are traditionally operated with a limited number of controls to secure the required supply task and to optimize economics and ecologic performance. An optimized heat generation and overall network operation is possible with more information on the demand and flexibility options.
