District heating and district cooling network engineering and consulting<\/h1>\n

Designing district heating networks requires an understanding of energy infrastructure, urban environments and network reliability. Reliable and cost-effective district heating and district cooling networks will continue to be a significant competitive advantage for the Nordics in the future. We help district heating companies to design and renew district heating networks as energy production becomes more diverse, the use of waste heat increases and new requirements are set for the network reliability.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/i><\/figure>\n

District heating networks are being renewed as part of society\u2019s energy transition.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The use of renewable energy sources in district heating and cooling creates new opportunities for district heating companies. District heating can be produced using electric boilers, for example from <\/span>waste heat generated by data centres<\/span><\/a>, when the district heating network is connected to the <\/span>electricity grid<\/span>.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Sweco\u2019s experts help develop district heating and district cooling networks in densely built urban environments.<\/span><\/p>\n

In-depth knowledge of the operating environment for district heating networks<\/h2>\n

Sweco\u2019s engineering and expert services cover new-build, renovation and modernisation projects for district heating and district cooling networks of all sizes. Our services support district heating companies when networks are expanded, old pipelines are renewed, or the reliability and capacity of a district heating network are improved.<\/span><\/p>\n

We support district heating infrastructure development with <\/span>asset management services<\/span><\/a>, helping to prioritise renovation surveys and plan long-term maintenance of the district heating network.<\/span><\/p>\n

We use map-based network modelling to plan district heating pipeline routes. Clash detection helps coordinate new district heating and district cooling connections, utility diversions and network renovations with other urban infrastructure, while supporting safe implementation in densely built environments.<\/span><\/p>\n
