Beschreibung

The project concerns an investment programme for the further development and decarbonisation of the Paris district heating network under its upcoming new concession agreement.

Ziele

The aim is to increase overall energy efficiency of the heating system by expanding the service to new areas, densifying the grid through new connections and upgrading it with new equipment and control systems, in line with the EU and national renewable energy targets. The project is also expected to substitute individual and central fossil fuels heating with more sustainable and efficient centralised heating systems, resulting in primary energy savings and reduction of emissions of greenhouse gases. The detailed project scope is not known at this stage.
