SubsidieMeestersCOMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT FOR CLEAN HEAT
ConnectHeat aims to decarbonize the heating and cooling sector through community energy initiatives, implementing 7 pilot projects across Europe while developing policies and training for sustainable energy.
Projectdetails
Introduction
The ConnectHeat project will develop an enabling policy framework for the development of community energy initiatives, aiming at decarbonising the heating and cooling (H&C) sector, in 7 target areas located in selected countries with a good geographical spread (BE, BL, ES, HR, IT, DE, PT) and, thanks to an ambitious dissemination and replication package, also in the whole EU.
Overcoming Barriers
ConnectHeat will overcome a major barrier in the H&C sector, since community energy has been so far the almost exclusive preserve of electricity, also because of a lack of comprehensiveness in the transposition of the RED II Directive in several Member States.
Project Activities
Thanks to structural cooperation with key stakeholders at local and transnational level and also to knowledge and best practices transfer, project activities will culminate in the implementation of 7 real-life pilot cases of H&C community energy in target areas.
Coverage of Applications
These pilot cases will cover a large range of applications, including:
- Industrial
- Tertiary
- Touristic
- Public buildings & social housing
- Urban regeneration
- Agriculture
Technical Solutions
A wide range of technical solutions and systems will be implemented, mainly based on the integration of local renewable energy sources (RES) such as:
- Solar thermal
- Biomass
- Waste heat
Skills Development and Policy Roadmaps
Furthermore, ConnectHeat will build up skills in the target areas and at the EU level, support 7 more pilot replicators in the EU, and develop 7 policy roadmaps.
Supporting Tools
Additionally, a blueprint proposing tools and suitable supporting schemes for a stable development of H&C community energy will be created.
Consortium and Support
The ConnectHeat consortium is constituted by:
- 6 local/regional key actors of the target areas
- 2 research/consulting companies
- 2 EU associations in the district heating and energy agency sectors
The project is welcomed by 43 letters of support from a variety of key stakeholders.
Expected Outcomes
The project will achieve:
- A renewable energy source (RES) generation of more than 44 GWh/year
- 21 million EUR of investments in sustainable energy
- Development of 11 policies
- Training for 550 people
- Outreach to more than 10,000 people through dissemination
