  1. With Underground Thermal #EnergyStorage, or simply "#Geothermal Storage", bulk quantities of hot or cold water gets stored underground with modest energy leakage.

    A very salient use case is using #Solar powered heat pumps during summer to heat up water for geothermal storage. Then during winter, this hot water can be tapped to heat homes and #DistrictHeating networks. This is #SeasonalEnergyStorage for solar.

    Renewable heat displaces gas.

  2. This new #Geothermal heating plant is set to start delivering heat to the local #DistrictHeating network this year. With any luck, just in time for the upcoming winter.

    Destroying demand for Fossil Gas requires substitution in power generation but also in space heating in particular. It also helps that geothermal resources for the #GeothermalHeatPump are more widespread than for geothermal power.

  3. Experts expect that the rising wholesale gas prices triggered by the war in Iran will reach many district‑heating customers only with a delay. "It ultimately de... news.osna.fm/?p=39312 | #news #bills #delayed #districtheating #iran

  4. 🔥 Connecting for climate-friendly heat
    At the end of June, the EnerNet network meeting brought together key players in local and district heating at the Future Energy Lab in Wunsiedel.

    The event was hosted by UBT and organized by Hof University’s iwe institute — fostering exchange for a more sustainable energy future. ⚡🌱

  5. Using #hydrogen for heating may sound attractive at first glance. However, all of the independent research on this topic comes to the same conclusion: heating with hydrogen is a lot less efficient and more expensive than alternatives such as #heatPumps, #districtHeating and #solarThermal such as #PVT.
