« Our company operates several district heating and cooling networks in the city of Lausanne. Under the impetus of the Climate Plan, these networks are about to undergo major changes. The objectives of energy efficiency and decarbonization of networks are forcing us to push back the limits, whether in the design, sizing or operation phases. In this context, DistrictLab.H™ is an invaluable aid in guiding our investment choices and mitigating project risks in the existing networks for which we are responsible. The completeness of the DistrictLab.H™ solution enables us to study all aspects of the network, from generation to distribution to the substation.For example, thanks to the solution’s high degree of modularity, we have studied an innovative three-pipe network concept that reconciles an existing infrastructure with low-temperature waste heat recovery. »
