18/06/2024: DHC-ready buildings: Energy efficiency & Digitalisation

District heating networks are among the sustainable ways to distribute renewable heat. However, integrating buildings into these networks poses significant challenges, particularly regarding energy efficiency and performance. This webinar delved into the benefits of implementing digital solutions at the building level to enhance the energy performance of buildings and highlighted the necessity and complexities of preparing buildings to connect to new-generation district heating systems, with a focus on leveraging digitalisation.
