Date: Thursday 7 February 2019 from 10:30 to 12:00
The recently revised Renewable Energy Directive recognises heating and cooling as a key sector in accelerating the decarbonisation of the energy system. New technologies and innovative concepts are being tested at local level in order to optimise the integration of renewable and waste heat sources into the heating systems in urban environments. During this webinar you will learn about EU’s heating & cooling decarbonisation policies and support. You will also discover how the RELaTED ultra-low temperature district heating concept may contribute to mainstreaming renewable energy in the heating sector and how it is being currently tested in the city Belgrade, Serbia, a recent Covenant of Mayors signatory.
