In addition to the solar park, a district heating network was built to supply the municipal buildings and residents with heat.

  • Conducts heat to the buildings as required (including public buildings such as the community centre and kindergarten)
  • Large hot water storage tank (buffer tank) ensures sufficient heat during the winter months and low solar radiation
  • 200-kilowatt wood chip boiler for additional security in winter months 

District heating network - Key figures

  • 1.5 MWp (PV heat share) from the park
  • Flow temperatures:
    Summer 70°C / Winter 80°C
  • Return temperatures:
    Summer 40°C / Winter 45°C
  • Approx. 1,000 megawatt hours:
    of which approx. 70% from the park
  • 2 air heat pumps (121 kW each)
    (base load only with PV yield)
  • Electric boiler (400 kW)
    (power2heat for PV surplus/redundancy)
  • Wood chip boiler (200 kW)
    (peak load and alternative operation)
  • Buffer storage tank (75,000 l)
    (delivery capacity 24 hours at full load)
  • Direct power line (20kV)
