E.ON Energilösningar is a subsidiary of EON Sverige and focuses on customer solutions such as energy sales, energy efficiency, district heating and cooling and the development of the new energy system. The company aims to be 100% fossil free by 2025. Today, E.ON Energilösningar delivers approximately 5 TWh hours of district heating to customers in Sweden, and also has extensive activities in the area of city quarter solutions. As part of the REWARDHeat project, EON will develop, design, build and evaluate a substation for 5th generation district heating and cooling networks, which will be demonstrated in Lund, Sweden.

Szczecińska Energetyka Cieplna (SEC) has been on the market for 60 years, supplying heat to the inhabitants of the city of Szczecin and the provinces of Western-Pomeranian, Pomeranian and Lubusz. For almost 20 years, SEC has been a part of the E.ON group.

SEC promotes and implements actions to drive the energy transition. One recent project, based on Łasztownia island in Szczecin, deploys a low-temperature heating system, fueled by local waste heat, heat pumps, RES, and waste-to-energy. The REWARDHeat project perfectly fits into an overarching plan for Szczecin which is to make Łasztownia a new, ecological and vibrant part of the city.

Energy Integration: From Policy to Action

Energy system integration is the pathway towards an effective, affordable and deep decarbonisation of the European economy. An integrated and transnational policy framework is needed to maximise the synergies between different energy sectors. This policy workshop will discuss the current status of energy system integration and what the future might have in store.

Virtual tours to renewable DH examples

The best way to learn about the use of renewables in DHC systems and to be inspired for starting new projects is to look at existing examples and to hear from peers how they initiated it all. In times of pandemic, however, site visits are often not possible.

That’s why the EU project ENTRAIN prepared a ‘virtual tour package’, collecting videos of built examples of renewable DHC across Europe, describing the technical details as well as the story of how the project was started, developed and completed. Though videos are published in different languages, you can easily add automatic English subtitles on YouTube.

Have a look at the list here and stay tuned for more updates!

The University POLITEHNICA of Bucharest, one of the four demo sites of the WEDISTRICT project, is about to start the integration of renewables in its DH network, which is currently operated by a gas CHP unit. The new system will include a unit producing thermal energy from geothermal heat pumps combined with hybrid photovoltaic/thermal collectors.
