The heat transition presents municipal utilities with the challenge of further developing their heating networks in a way that is economically viable, climate-friendly and future-proof. Large-scale heat pumps play a central role in this: they tap into renewable and previously untapped heat sources, reduce the use of fossil fuels and enable efficient network operation. Using practical examples, this presentation demonstrates how large-scale heat pumps can be successfully integrated into existing and new heating networks, and outlines the technical, economic and regulatory framework that must be taken into account. Furthermore, it highlights opportunities for combining them with other technologies such as thermal storage, photovoltaics or power-to-heat. Participants will gain an overview of current developments, learn from experiences gained in completed projects, and receive specific recommendations for the planning and implementation of sustainable heating networks.
