For us, rethinking means relying on regenerative heating systems and utilising renewable electricity from photovoltaic, wind power and storage systems. This is supplemented by waste heat and natural geothermal energy, which are key components of CO2-neutral heat generation. After all, the energy transition can only succeed if the heating sector is increasingly supplied with renewable energy in addition to the electricity sector.
The Heat Planning Act (WPG), which came into force in January 2024, has created a clear legal framework: All heating networks in Germany must be climate-neutral by 2045 at the latest. Local authorities are now obliged to develop strategies and measures to achieve this goal as part of municipal heating planning.
These plans serve as a basis for:
- Significant reduction in CO2 emissions in the heating sector
- Reduced dependence on fossil fuel imports
- More stable and future-proof energy prices
- Strengthening local value creation through regional service providers
- Future-proof heat supply
With our comprehensive expertise, we support cities and municipalities in municipal heating planning, feasibility studies and the planning and construction of renewable district heating systems.
The aim is to ensure a future-proof, climate-neutral and efficient heat supply that meets local needs and sustainably reduces CO₂ emissions.
We offer customised solutions based on a detailed inventory analysis, modern planning tools and the use of a digital twin. This virtual model makes it possible to precisely map real heating systems, simulate scenarios and optimise energy flows.
The heat demand of the buildings/end customers to be connected is determined by carefully analysing the data.
Identification of potential renewable energies and waste heat sources in order to utilise sustainable heat.
Planning and calculation of the required dimensions of your heating network, including network planning and calculation.
Development of profitability and financing concepts to ensure the feasibility of your project.
Timetable for implementing the outlined supply concept.
Sketch of the route and assessment of the location of the heating centre.
Detailed analysis of all economic aspects of your project over a period of 30 years.
Tabular representation of the necessary authorisations for heat generators, sources and routes.
Clear and concise summary of the results of our planning services for your project.
In our FAQs, we answer the most frequently asked questions about heating - from technical details and installation to subsidy options.
