HOT|COOL NO. 3/2024 "HEAT PLANNING"

"What is the greater value of heat planning – to cities, citizens, and society? To give input on that topic, we have invited Mayor Steen Christiansen from the municipality of Albert- slund, chairman of the heat transmission company VEKS, and board member of the Danish DH Association to discuss with Volker Ki e nzlen, Managing director of KEA, BW.

Volker Ki e nzlen and his team have been leading the work in BW to implement the first German law on heat planning and have also been instrumental in an international heat project where heat is taken from K i ehl in Germany and piped to a large DH network in Strasbourg. Steen Christiansen has had DH on his agenda for a long time, and his municipality is leading the way in both sustain-able and energy-efficient transitions. Based on good heat planning, the municipally owned DH company is expanding to convert more households from natural gas to district heating. “
