In 2003, a biomass heating plant with an associated local heating network was built in the town of Gräfenberg. This local heating network is currently being significantly expanded so that more than 60 new consumers can be supplied with renewable heat from the existing biomass heating plant.
In order to replace the climate-damaging fuel lignite with CO2-free heat, the site managers decided to connect the plant to the local district heating network of N-Ergie. In addition to the conversion of the heat supply, several optimisation measures in the local heating network were also investigated in order to achieve the maximum CO2 savings.
