District heating networks increasingly rely on heat pumps, condensing biomass boilers, and
excess heat in the transition to sustainable energy systems. Accordingly, district heating …

The purpose with this review is to provide a presentation of the background and current
position for district heating and cooling in Sweden. The review structure considers the …

Flexibility in district heating and cooling systems (thermal networks in general) is an
important means to cope with the intermittent generation of heat and electricity as the share …

Predicting next-day heat load curves is essential to guarantee sufficient heat supply and
optimal operation of district heat systems (DHSs). Existing studies have mainly investigated …

The main impetus for lower distribution temperatures in district heating systems is the lower
heat supply costs obtained by these lower temperatures. In this paper, the differences in …

District heating and cooling (DHC) systems are attracting increased interest for their low
carbon potential. However, most DHC systems are not operating at the expected …

Installing carbon capture and storage (BECCS) capability at existing biomass-fired
combined heat and power (bio-CHP) plants with substantial emissions of biogenic CO 2 …

District heating systems are essential building blocks for affordable, low-carbon heat supply.
Early detection and elimination of faults is crucial for the efficiency of these systems and …

The 4 th generation district heating (DH) will be available in the coming years. However, the
transition from the current 2 nd or 3 rd generation DH is a challenging task. This article …
