Large-scale heat pumps and the municipal heat transition: How cities are decarbonising their heat supply

A large-scale heat pump is an industrial heat generation system with a thermal output typically ranging from several hundred kilowatts to the multi-megawatt scale. It extracts energy from environmental or waste heat sources and upgrades it to a usable temperature level. When deployed in district heating networks, it enables the decarbonization of heat supply for entire urban districts. Currently, around 70 percent of the heat supplied through German district heating networks still comes from fossil fuel sources, with natural gas and coal being the dominant energy carriers (according to Andreas Kuhn, Key Account Manager Industrial & Commercial Heating at ENGIE Refrigeration). Large-scale heat pumps can gradually reduce this share, helping municipalities achieve their climate targets.

Refrigerants with a future: Mastering the F-Gas Regulation sustainably thanks to ENGIE Refrigeration

By 2030, the European Union aims to reduce emissions of fluorinated greenhouse gases by 70 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent to 35 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent compared to 1990. The F-Gas Regulation makes a key contribution to this by incentivising the use of alternative refrigerants and requiring those responsible to develop new strategies for the cooling and heating supply of tomorrow. Jörn Stiegelmeier, Head of Technology and Development at ENGIE Refrigeration, knows the legal situation very well, not least through his association work at the Bundesindustrieverband Technische Gebäudeausrüstung e. V. (BTGA), and points out future-proof perspectives.

F-gas Regulation: An important step towards climate-friendly refrigeration

The F-gas Regulation issued by the European Union confronts the refrigeration industry with major challenges. Its mission: to move away from fluorinated greenhouse gases (F-gases) and towards climate-friendly refrigeration. In this article you will learn more about the legal regulation and about future-proof refrigeration solutions.
