District Heating and Cooling (DHC) has proven to be a major contributor to Greenhouse Gas (GHG) reduction in many member countries and recognition of DHC's importance is growing. In fact, many countries where it is established are renewing their commitment to DHC as they find new ways to use the technology to reduce environmental impacts. DHC facilitates linkages between supplies that are environmentally desirable and end users that could not otherwise make use of those energy sources.
District Heating not only offers excellent opportunities for reducing environmental pollution, but also for achieving the goal of saving energy. It is an extremely flexible technology which can make use of any fuel including the utilisation of waste energy, renewables and, most significantly, the application of combined heat and power (CHP).
It is by means of these integrated solutions that very substantial progress towards environmental targets, such as those emerging from Kyoto can be made.
The Implementing Agreement DHC-CHP,
also known as District Heating and Cooling including
CHP functions within a framework created by the International
Energy Agency. Views, findings and publications by DHC-CHP
do not necessarily represent the views or policies of
the IEA Secretariat or of all its individual member
countries.
