RELaTED project will be at the CoolDH & Celsius Talk on Low Temperature District Heating

RELaTED Project will be at the CoolDH & Celsius Talk: Low Temperature District Heating by the hand of Christian Holm Christiansen, Senior Consultant at the Danish Technological Institute (DTI). Place: https://zoom.us/j/893355855 Date: Thursday, April 16, 2020. Time: 10:30 - 11:30 CET. Organizer: Celsius Initiative & COOL DH. Register for the webinar >> Decarbonised district heating systems are already here and some of them are spelled low temperature district heating (LTDH). As a matter of fact, low temperature district heating can prove to be an important part in keeping the globe’s temperature low as well. This webinar will present some of the opportunities and challenges cities may encounter in their endeavour towards a sustainable and efficient energy system. This webinar is hosted [...]

Solar thermal potential in the district heating system of Belgrade City

The use of renewable energy sources as biomass, solar thermal solutions, geothermal energy, and waste heat is becoming more popular in Europe. The transition of district heating systems from fossil fuels to renewables is the next step in the development of district heating, but there is still a lot of work ahead for everyone, not only in the local level but in the whole world. Chairs of Opening ceremony: prof. dr Branislav Todorović, prof. dr Bratislav Blagojević and dr Milovan Živković (Photo: Serbian Society for HVAC&R). These are some of the topics discussed at the regional conference Renewable Energy Sources in District Heating and Cooling Systems held in Belgrade last december. This event was organized by the European [...]

Watch the Integration of Industrial Waste Heat in District Heating Systems [webinar]

Do not miss the recording of the second RELaTED webinar on the Integration of Industrial Waste Heat in District Heating and learn about the role of waste heat in DHs and the RELaTED project DH concept! What’s new in District Heating Systems (DHs)? DHs have traditionally been designed to be operated with central energy production facilities and a variety of distributed consumption locations (dwellings, tertiary buildings, etc). In some cases, heat is partially obtained from local industrial waste heat streams, leading to almost de-carbonized heating energy supplies. In case you did not know about the role of waste heat in DHs, after watching this webinar you may have upskilled your knowledge about its benefits. Furthermore, the webinar allowed the [...]

WEBINAR: “An innovative approach to thermal energy storage and self-sufficiency in buildings”

RELaTED project was presented at the webinar “An innovative approach to thermal energy storage and self-sufficiency in buildings", organized by its sister EU project CHESS SETUP. The webinar also had the special collaboration of the projects SUNHORIZON and HYBUILD. Roberto Garay, ReLATED Project Coordinator (Tecnalia), presented the RELaTED concept at the webinar "An innovative approach to thermal energy storage and self-sufficiency in buildings", organized by its sister project CHESS SETUP. In this webinar the attendees learnt about the CHESS SETUP system, a reliable, efficient and profitable system able to supply heating and hot water in buildings mainly form renewable sources. The empirical results of the pilot which have implemented CHESS SETUP system were presented. Then, RELaTED, SUNHORIZON and HYBUILD projects [...]

Webinar on RELaTED project: Integration of Industrial Waste Heat in District Heating

What’s new in District Heating Systems (DHs)? What are the benefits of industrial waste heat in district heating? These and more questions were covered during the webinar on the Integration of Industrial Waste Heat in District Heating. The European Portal for Energy Efficiency in Buildings (BUILD UP) and the RELaTED Project organized a one-hour webinar that took place on Monday, 2 December 2019, at 12:00 CET. District Heating Systems have traditionally been designed to be operated with central energy production facilities and a variety of distributed consumption locations (dwellings, tertiary buildings, etc). In some cases, heat is partially obtained from local industrial waste heat streams, leading to almost de-carbonized heating energy supplies. What is the role of waste heat coming from industries [...]

RELaTED concept was presented at the X edition of IAQVEC

The attendees of the 10th International Conference on Indoor Air Quality, Ventilation and Energy Conservation in Buildings (IAQVEC) had the opportunity to know more about the decentralized and renewable ultra-low temperature district heating concept that proposes the RELaTED project. Mikel Lumbreras, researcher at Tecnalia, gave an interesting presentation about the 4th Generation District Heating and the ultra-low district heating advantages for adapting to changeable conditions. Lumbreras also presented the benefits of flexible technologies as microboosters and 3 function scheme substations. This session was also a great opportunity to shared the latest developments in ultra-low district heating concepts and district heating substations proposed by the RELaTED project. These papers are online and freely available in the following URLs: RELaTED, decentralized & [...]
