District Heating grids are
transforming and decarbonizing
Networks are rapidly changing and need physical adjustments in order to:
Decarbonize with new sources.
Reduce dependency on natural gas as much as possible.
Ensure network growth as individual users switch from natural gas distribution to District Heating.
Keep up with constant maintenance needed for existing heating systems.
Making designs for the necessary changes is complex, often inaccurate and costly
Existing models take too much time to update.
These are often not real simulations but just manual designs.
No connection to actual data makes it unclear what the exact physical effects of the changes will be.
Line drawings are not able to capture the full dynamic non-linear complexity of a network.
Static simulations are complex to realise repeatedly and are only based on key figures.
Updating the models is expensive and time-consuming.
Engineers are occupied with building the simulation and have little to no time left
to take analysis and business impact into consideration.
Extracting business insights from static models is oversimplified.
Futureproof designs for your
District Heating grid need:
Accuracy.
Speed of simulation.
Quality and certainty of results.
Translation of simulation to business implication.
Assurance that designs have the right CAPEX.
Assessment of future OPEX.
