Heat pump installations for 5th generation district heating and cooling in the city of Brunssum

Mijnwater B.V. is developing a circular energy system for residential complexes of social housing corporation Weller B.V. Due to Mijnwaters’ heating and cooling network, the connected homes are not only heated without natural gas but will also be comfortably cooled with green energy. The new heat pump installations in Brunssum provide district heating and cooling supply for three residential areas, Tarcisius, Oude Egge and Pastor Savelbergstraat, with a total of 200 houses. The basements for heat pumps are connected to a subsoil heat and cold storage (TES) but also exchange energy between the different complexes. The project is part of the Natural Gas-free Brunssum pilot and the Interreg-NWE project D2Grids.
