An Industrial Alliance to promote sustainable District Heating and Cooling grids!
With the aim to increase the RES in the heating and cooling sector, the Interreg D2Grids project is rolling-out a 5th Generation District Heating and Cooling (5GDHC). Looking to the future, the Interreg D2Grids project is establishing a 5GDHC Industrial Alliance.
Heating and cooling sector is moving to clean low-carbon energy, however, 77% of the fuel it uses still comes from fossil fuels, nearly half from gas (source Eurostat). Considering the recent unstable trends in the natural gas market, the need to increase the share of renewable energy sources (RES) is important as ever.
The purpose of the 5GDHC Industrial Alliance among others is offering solutions to climate change through promoting sustainable heating and cooling grids, like 5th generation district heating and cooling.
