This report contains the results from an inventory performed during 2022 and 2023 of early initiatives for decarbonisation of district heating systems. It is structured by identification of 70 possibilities and supported by 284 implemented, planned, or proposed cases from Europe, North America, and China.
The three main conclusions are (1) decarbonisation activities can be divided into substituting and supporting possibilities, (2) the availability of decarbonisation possibilities depend on local conditions, and (3) the seven common denominators for these possibilities are degrees of freedom for decarbonisation, action plans for getting lower heat distribution temperatures, various ways of using heat pumps for upgrading low supply temperatures for satisfying higher demand temperatures, smart digitalisation options, clear supply responsibilities, favourable institutional frameworks, and digital planning models.
