Temperature Optimisation for Low Temperature District Heating across Europe
In the EU project TEMPO technical innovations were developed to enable the operation of district heating networks at lower temperatures. Six technological innovations brought individual added value to most district heating networks. However, the strength of this project lies in the combination of the individual technologies into solution packages for specific application areas. The developed innovations were demonstrated and implemented in 2 district heating networks covering 90% of the district heating market types.
