Abstract

The technologies of heat supply for agglomeration areas will, in the future, undergo appreciable changes compared to the present status. There will be a strong enhancement of the use of domestic energy sources like solid waste, biogas and biomass or coal. Perhaps the strongest momentum will come from efforts to make use of the large potential of industrial waste heat, which is generally in the same order of magnitude as the demand for heating energy. Since we have different temperature levels here compared to conventional district heating, different technologies will be employed, in particular connected with low temperature applications. Some of them are described in the paper, and the main results of an investigation are reported, where the potential of application in an area of about 400,000 inhabitants were studied.
