The customer service levels are worth a special mention. Customers of Salaspils Siltums can choose when to start the heating season. Using a remote data reading system, an employee of the company continuously monitors the heating energy consumption and advises the consumers on more efficient use of the heat energy. The employee ensures that the temperature schedule is strictly respected. A low return temperature ensures less heat losses and increases the efficiency of all production facilities, especially the flue gas condenser.

One of the main problems of post-Soviet boiler stations was the high amount of losses in heat transport. The company has been working hard to reduce the relative heat losses by replacing all heat pipelines with pre-insulated pipes, as well as ensuring the compliance of the heat carrier flow with the outdoor temperature and also monitoring the return temperature.

Salaspils Siltums also participates in the process of energy efficiency improvement for apartment buildings by offering renovation project management.

A BALTIC FIRST: PRODUCING HEATING ENERGY FROM THE SUN

The company has ambitious plans for the future. Work is already underway on another new upgrade project – Salaspils Siltums is planning to install a solar collector with accumulation tank to use solar energy for producing heat. In addition, a 3 MW woodchip boiler is to be installed, replacing the fossil fuel with woodchips.
