Abstract

In order to maintain the competitiveness and improve the environmental performance of district heating in the future, it is essential to transition to lower operating temperatures than those of current third-generation district heating systems. Heat demands are expected to decrease as buildings become more energy efficient, and new types of heat sources are likely to be integrated. Therefore, future supply and return temperatures of 50–55 °C and 20–30 °C, have been suggested for the fourth-generation district heating systems.
