Therefore, <strong>alignment with the Net Zero Scenario requires reducing CO2 emissions from heating production by at least 20% by 2030<\/strong>, compared to 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This last year under review, the amount of heat produced for heat networks worldwide was almost 16 EJ, about 10% more than a decade earlier. And yet, district heating supply still only accounts for around 8% of total final heat consumption globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Nearly 90% of global district heating networks  was produced from fossil fuels in 2021<\/strong>, predominantly coal (over 45%), especially in China; natural gas (around 40%), in particular in Russia; and oil (\u20ac3.5). In this context, renewable energies accounted for less than 8% of the global supply of district heating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, while bioenergy and municipal waste account for the vast majority of renewable district grid supply, large-scale solar thermal systems and heat pumps are experiencing increasing interest. Thus, we see that by the end of 2021, almost 300 solar district heating systems were in operation worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Europe<\/strong> currently <strong>leads the integration of renewable energies in these urban district networks<\/strong>, with around 25% of renewable sources for the supply to its heat networks. Among the countries with the highest rates of integration of renewable energy are Sweden, Denmark, Austria, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia and Iceland, a country in which more than 50% of district heating is powered by this type of sustainable energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"449\" src=\"https:\/\/reinva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Geotermia-Islandia-Reinva.jpeg\" alt=\"District heating - Urban district networks - Reinva\" class=\"wp-image-8871\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reinva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Geotermia-Islandia-Reinva.jpeg 750w, https:\/\/reinva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Geotermia-Islandia-Reinva-300x180.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/reinva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Geotermia-Islandia-Reinva-375x224.jpeg 375w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, in the expected Net Zero Scenario, urban district networks continues to supply a similar part of global final heat consumption, although the improvements achieved in <strong>energy efficiency in district heating networks and in building envelopes will allow a decrease in total district heating supply by around 20% by 2030<\/strong> compared to 2021. At the same time, in this period renewable energy used in heat networks will almost double from current levels, accounting for almost one fifth of district heating supplies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\">Stable share of district heating<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many buildings and industrial sites rely on district heating, from large heat networks in Beijing, Seoul, Milan and Stockholm to smaller networks such as university and medical campuses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Around <strong>40% of the heat generated globally in district heating plants is consumed by buildings<\/strong>. And yet, globally, district heating provides a relatively small part of the heat used in these, with 11% of final consumption, a share that has remained constant since 2000, even if one takes into account that the built area has increased by 65% \u200b\u200bover the same period. Although this global average share is low, district heating systems cover a large part of the heat supplied to buildings in some European countries, such as Denmark (around 65%) and Sweden (over 45%), as well as in Russia ( around 40%) and China (more than 15%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For its part, <strong>around 40% of the heat generated globally in urban district networks plants goes to the industrial sector<\/strong>, according to IEA. In this area, China leads industrial district heat use, accounting for 55% of the global total in 2021, up from 35% in 2010. By contrast, Russia&#8217;s share fell to less than 25%, up from more 35% in 2010.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"867\" height=\"489\" src=\"https:\/\/reinva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Fotos-de-produccion-quemadores-para-Polonia5.jpg\" alt=\"Combustion equipment designed by E&amp;M Combustion for the Power Plant Karolin - Reinva heating plant\" class=\"wp-image-8879\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reinva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Fotos-de-produccion-quemadores-para-Polonia5.jpg 867w, https:\/\/reinva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Fotos-de-produccion-quemadores-para-Polonia5-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/reinva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Fotos-de-produccion-quemadores-para-Polonia5-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/reinva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Fotos-de-produccion-quemadores-para-Polonia5-433x244.jpg 433w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 867px) 100vw, 867px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\">Solar thermal district heating<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Urban district networks is in the process of expanding, with the announcement of new projects in 2021 and 2022, including some with low-emission power sources based on solar thermal energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As an example, 44 new large-scale solar heating systems were built in 2021, with a total capacity of 142 MWth. Overall, Denmark is home to the largest solar thermal district heating capacity, although <strong>in 2021, the largest development of solar thermal urban district networks occurred in China<\/strong>, which reached three quarters of the market in that period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\">Geothermal heating<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Within the European framework, <strong>13 new geothermal heating and cooling plants connected to urban district networks were announced in 2021<\/strong>. In this way, the Danish city of Aarhus announced at the beginning of 2022 the development of the largest geothermal district heating installation in Europe, which will be partially operational in 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For its part, the United States has announced a district heating and cooling project consisting of 200 geothermal wells. And in Iceland, a local heating company commissioned new geothermal district heating in H\u00f6fn, to replace the existing electric heating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\">Waste heat recovering<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Projects that integrate heat sources obtained through th<strong>e recovery of residual heat from facilities<\/strong>, considered secondary sources, are also increasing. Among these is that of an energy company in Vienna, Austria, which in 2022 launched a heat recycling project that aims to harness hot water (30\u00b0C) from local thermal baths with the use of a heat pump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also in Austria, a district heating system exports waste heat from Interxion&#8217;s data center to the neighboring Floridsdorf hospital in Vienna, with funding from the federal government. Meanwhile, in Ireland, construction began in 2021 on the country&#8217;s first large-scale district heating network. This Tallaght district heating scheme uses waste heat from a local data center to heat different public, residential and commercial buildings in the city centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\">Reinva&#8217;s experience in Heat Networks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\"><a href=\"https:\/\/reinva.es\/en\/the-company-steam-technology\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Reinva<\/strong><\/a>  supplies and commissions combustion equipment for urban district networks designed by the Basque manufacturer E&amp;M Combusti\u00f3n.
