Strategic Research Agenda for District Heating & Cooling and Thermal Energy Storage Technologies
Description
The research document (2021), prepared by the DHC and TES technology panel of the European Technology and Innovation Platform on Renewable Heating & Cooling (RHC Platform), outlines the research priorities for the sector and complements the Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda of the RHC-ETIP, that was published in 2020. The research actions outlined cover a seven-year time period, from 2021-2027 and are grouped under the following topics:
β’ Waste Heat
β’ District Cooling
β’ Low Temperature District Heating and Cooling
β’ Energy System Integration
β’ Digitalisation
β’ Thermal Energy Storage.
