This book was released on 1985-02-01 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Used historically in urban areas but now mainly in institutions, district heating and cooling systemsâ€"efficient centralized energy systems that may use energy sources other than petroleumâ€"have gained renewed interest. This volume is a nontechnical examination of the history and current extent of district heating and cooling systems in the United States, their costs and benefits, technical requirements, market demand for them, and European experience with such systems, with major focus on the problems of financing, regulation, and taxation. Appendixes provide case studies of cities and towns currently using district heating and cooling systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report identifies modern district energy as the most effective approach for many cities to transition to sustainable heating and cooling, by improving energy efficiency and enabling higher shares of renewables. This publication is one of the first reports to provide concrete policy, finance and technology best-practice recommendations on addressing the heating and cooling sectors in cities through energy efficiency improvements and the integration of renewables, both of which are central to the energy transition. These recommendations have been developed in collaboration with 45 champion cities, all of which use district energy, with 11 of them using it to achieve 100 per cent renewables or carbon-neutral targets.

Book excerpt: The history of district heating includes both the birth of the district heating industry in the United States and the modern systems now being developed in northern Europe. During the early part of the twentieth century, the first small cogeneration/district heating plant came into existence. These systems used exhaust steam from small dual-purpose power plants to heat buildings in the nearby business district. As a result, steam district heating combined with cogeneration was widely accepted. During the late 1940s the situation changed when the introduction of inexpensive oil and natural gas for space heating reduced the rapid growth of district heating. Presently many US steam district heating businesses are not profitable and are in total disrepair. The history of district heating in Europe is somewhat different than that in the United States. The development of district heating networks in northern and eastern Europe started in the early 1950s. Hot water, rather than steam, was used as a transport media. European systems tend to have larger service areas than those in the United States. They serve lower heat load density regions and use remotely located cogeneration power plants.

Book excerpt: Within the past five years there has been a growing awareness of the energy conservation and economic advantages of modern hot-water district heating systems. A description is given of the status of major US district heating projects and the potential impact of the newly implemented US National District Heating Plan is examined. At the present time there are five major district heating projects moving into the construction and demonstration phase. Although all have hot water distribution systems a variety of heat sources are being utilized. These heat sources include geothermal water, industrial reject heat, and utility cogeneration using coal-fired power plants.

Download or read book Integrated Spatial and Energy Planning written by Gernot Stoeglehner and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-02 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on spatial planning – an important determinant of energy saving and renewable energy supply. Revealing the key driving forces for spatial development supporting the shift towards energy efficiency and renewable energy supplies, it shows the importance of integrated spatial and energy planning approaches for a timely and sustainable change of energy systems, thus supporting policies of climate protection. As operating within the context of renewable energy sources is becoming a major policy issue at the international, European and national level, spatial dimensions of renewable energy systems as well as challenges, barriers and opportunities in different spatial contexts become more important. This book analyses not only the fundamental system interrelations between resources, technologies and consumption patterns with respect to energy, but also the links to the spatial context, and provides guidelines for researchers as well as practitioners in this new, emerging field. It presents innovative analytical tools to solve real-world problems and discusses the most important fields of action in integrated spatial and energy planning including planning contents, planning visions and principles as well as planning process design and planning methodology.

Download or read book District Heating and Cooling Networks in the European Union written by Antonio Colmenar-Santos and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-18 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book evaluates the potential of the combined use of district heating networks and cogeneration in the European Union (EU). It also proposes measures to remove barriers hindering their widespread implementation, formulates policies for their implementation, and evaluates their economic, energy, and environmental consequences. The book presents a preliminary assessment of the likely cost and the impact of widespread adoption of district heating networks and cogeneration carried out in three cities that represent the variety of climatic conditions in the EU. Based on this assessment, it is estimated that by undertaking the maximum economically feasible implementation across the EU, fuel savings of €95M/year would be achieved, representing energy savings of 6,400 petajoules (PJ), which is around 15% of the total final energy consumption in the EU in 2013 (46,214.5 PJ). Using simple and quick calculations and not specific software, the method used allows the evaluation of the potential benefits of retrofitting existing power plants into cogeneration plants and connecting them to nearby heating networks. In light of increasing energy costs and environmental concerns, the book is of interest to heating engineers, city planners, and policy-makers around the globe.
