We hope you enjoy the reading and are looking forward to seeing you at our upcoming trainings and events.

Best regards,

PLANHEAT final event: Plan today, save tomorrow!

The PLANHEAT event is organised as part of the Euroheat & Power Congress 2019 taking place in Nantes, France from 6-8 May, 2019. On top of giving you the chance to enjoy the Congress, we designed the PLANHEAT final event (8 May, 11:00 – 15:00) especially for cities & local governments!

Growing urbanisation means that cities and densely populated regions are in the driver’s seat to make the energy transition happen. Innovative heating and cooling solutions are the enabler to decarbonise cities by unlocking energy efficiency potentials and moving towards renewable heating schemes. The PLANHEAT tool supports cities to simulate their way to decarbonising its heating and cooling system by showing economically feasible scenarios. Plan today, save tomorrow!

Special deal for cities:

For the first 20 cities we offer a free Congress pass to attend the whole Euroheat & Power Congress for free and to get travel/accommodation expenses reimbursed! Currently, there are still 8 reimbursement slots available. Don't miss out!

Would you like to use the PLANHEAT tool prototypes?

The first prototypes of the PLANHEAT tool are now available to be used and tested by cities, energy planners and all project stakeholders!

Would you like to be one of our first test users? It’s very simple! Get in touch with us and start using the PLANHEAT tool!

You will be able to use the “beta version” of the PLANHEAT mapping module and provide relevant feedback about its usability. We will then update you about the forthcoming release of the planning and simulation prototype modules.

We highly recommend that you first follow all training modules and have a look at the e-learning course before starting to use the tool. Our technical experts would also be happy to answer your questions!
