The project concerns investments into the district heating network and heat supply in the city of Berlin.
The aim is to finance several investments in the Berlin district heat system, such as: modernisation and extension of the district heating network including low-carbon and renewable heat supply.
The key objectives aim at reducing greenhouse gas emissions and lower air pollution. Modernising the district heating systems will prevent heat losses, increase security of supply while extension will avoid installation of individual heating systems often based on fossil fuels. Investments in more sustainable heat generation including heat pumps and waste heat usage will replace existing coal-based heat generation.
