2 Department of Energy District Heating and Cooling: an opportunity for energy efficiency and renewables Michel NOUSSAN, Marco MASOERO, Politecnico di Torino District Heating and Cooling District heating and district cooling have the goal of connecting local resources to local needs in order to build up a sustainable energy system. District energy is a proven solution for delivering heating, hot water and cooling services through a network of insulated pipes, from a central point of generation to the end user. Some crucial aspects are the global system conversion efficiency, the environmental impacts and the economic sustainability. DH&DC

Air quality improvement Reduced indoor and outdoor air pollution and their associated health impacts, through reduced fossil fuel consumption. Energy efficiency improvement Operational efficiency gains of up to 90 per cent through use of district energy infrastructure to link the heat and electricity sectors. Use of local and renewable sources Harnessing of local energy sources, including from waste streams, reject heat, natural water bodies and renewable energy. Piloting of new technologies, such as thermal storage, to integrate variable renewables. Resilience and energy access Reduced import dependency and fossil fuel price volatility. Management of electricity demand and reduced risk of brownouts. DH

7 Department of Energy District Heating and Cooling: an opportunity for energy efficiency and renewables Michel NOUSSAN, Marco MASOERO, Politecnico di Torino Heat demand in European Union In the EU around 73% of the population live in cities, rising to an estimated 80% by 2030. At present 69% of total primary energy demands are concentrated in urban areas. DH

8 Department of Energy District Heating and Cooling: an opportunity for energy efficiency and renewables Michel NOUSSAN, Marco MASOERO, Politecnico di Torino DH systems in European Union There are more than 5.000 DH systems in E.U., currently supplying more than 10% of total European heat demands with an annual turnover of €25-30 billion and 2 EJ (556 TWh) heat sales. Market penetration of District Heating is unevenly distributed, being close to zero in some countries while reaching as high as 70% of the heat market in others. DH

9 Department of Energy District Heating and Cooling: an opportunity for energy efficiency and renewables Michel NOUSSAN, Marco MASOERO, Politecnico di Torino Final heat demand by source The heat demand of the final users can be obtained by a number of different sources, depending on the country. The district heating penetration, which is higher in northern countries, compete with traditional generation technologies. http://www.intechopen.com/books/sustainable-energy-recent-studies/district-heating-and-cooling-enable-efficient-energy-resource-utilisation DH Heat generation share in some northern countries.

10 Department of Energy District Heating and Cooling: an opportunity for energy efficiency and renewables Michel NOUSSAN, Marco MASOERO, Politecnico di Torino DH and Policies The DH development often requires the support of energy strategies and policies at national and local level. Long-term national energy strategies that provide a framework for local DH development in cities. Specific local district energy targets (e.g. GHG emissions or primary energy consumption reduction, increase of RES or waste heat re-use share, etc.) Holistic energy plans by integrating energy infrastructure and land use planning City-wide/zonal mandatory connection policies Crucial role of Local Authorities in Public financing, fiscal incentives, pilot plants etc. DH

Gothenburg is basing 60% of its district heating on waste/recycled heat including from industries, waste incineration and waste water treatment. Currently 90% of all buildings are heated using district heating. DH

16 Department of Energy District Heating and Cooling: an opportunity for energy efficiency and renewables Michel NOUSSAN, Marco MASOERO, Politecnico di Torino District Cooling characteristicsDC The cooling demand is worldwide rising, and this trend seems to be further increasing in the future. District Cooling can provide significant benefits by exploiting centralized generation facilities with higher conversion efficiencies.

17 Department of Energy District Heating and Cooling: an opportunity for energy efficiency and renewables Michel NOUSSAN, Marco MASOERO, Politecnico di Torino DC in European countries District Cooling in Europe today has a market share of about 2% of the total cooling market, corresponding to approximately 10 PJ (3 TWh) cooling. The market penetration of District Cooling shows great diversity. Overall, this market has emerged quite recently and is consequently less developed than the District Heating market. It is, however, growing fast with the last decade seeing a tenfold growth in installed capacity. DC

18 Department of Energy District Heating and Cooling: an opportunity for energy efficiency and renewables Michel NOUSSAN, Marco MASOERO, Politecnico di Torino DC technologiesDC Electric chillers Typically higher COPs than residential and commercial air- conditioning units (up to 7 vs 2 to 4). Use of refrigerants with lower environmental impacts. Free cooling Use of renewables and exploitation of residual energy sources. Reduction of power consumption for cooling, especially at peak load. The free cooling can be coupled to chillers that provide an integration when water is not cold enough. Absorption chillers from surplus heat Possibility of exploiting available surplus heat (e.g. waste incinerator plants, CHP plants, heat from industries, etc.). Reduction of power consumption for cooling, especially at peak load. Coupling with electricity production peak loads, which often occurs in summertime in many countries.

19 Department of Energy District Heating and Cooling: an opportunity for energy efficiency and renewables Michel NOUSSAN, Marco MASOERO, Politecnico di Torino Integration of DC and DH The cooling production with absorption chillers can allow to connect DH networks and DC networks, with the possibility of operating trigeneration systems. The absorption machine can be centralized, and the cooling energy distributed through a DC network. Alternatively, the DH network can provide heat to distributed absorption machines which produce locally the cooling needs. http://www.intechopen.com/books/sustainable-energy-recent-studies/district-heating-and-cooling-enable-efficient-energy-resource-utilisation DH&DC

24 Department of Energy District Heating and Cooling: an opportunity for energy efficiency and renewables Michel NOUSSAN, Marco MASOERO, Politecnico di Torino Conclusions – challenges and opportunities Need for national and local policies and clear targets for enhancing district heating development. District energy provides interesting opportunities for GHG emissions reduction, primary energy savings and increase of renewable energy share. Each DHC system needs a focused planning based on the local energy needs and resources availability. Attention must be paid on DHC systems operation, in order to guarantee high conversion efficiencies. District Energy allows in existing systems the fuel switching to renewable sources. DH&DC
