Development of Future EU District Heating and Cooling Network Solutions, Sharing Experiences and Fostering Collaborations

open access: yesProceedings, 2017
Heating and cooling consume half of the EU’s energy and much of it is wasted. The lion’s share of heating and cooling is still generated from fossil fuels, mainly natural gas, while only 18% is generated from renewable energy. In order to fulfil the EU’s
