[REWARDHEAT] Final Event
Towards a greener future: Innovative solutions for flexible and integrated low-temperature DHC networks
The REWARDHeat project is organising its final event on 25 September at Brussels (Belgium), where groundbreaking developments in low-temperature district heating and cooling (DHC) networks will be presented.
This event will highlight the potential of DHC in waste heat recovery and its crucial role in decarbonisation. Discover the synergy between low-temperature DHC and heat pumps, effective solutions for waste heat capture and learn about innovative business models and digital tools for optimisation and flexibility.
Experts in the field will gather around a panel discussion on the evolving EU policy framework and its impact on sustainable energy solutions.
