Scope and objectives of use case

Scope

A 4th generation heat network is rolled out at the Thor business park in Genk, where buildings are also equipped with PV panels, thermal day-to-day and seasonal storage, gas boilers and heat pumps. One use case is to use the heat network to recuperate low temperature residual heat from the heat pumps in other buildings at the Thor park. The residual heat and cold from the EnergyVille buildings 1 and 2 can then be maximally used to supply the other buildings at the Thor park.

Objective(s)

[identify specific objectives]

O1: Analyse the extent to which residual heat and cold from the EnergyVille buildings can be used to supply other buildings at the Thor business park.

Belongs to use case group (if applicable)
