Workshop

Heat Roadmap Poland

25 January 2018
Warsaw, Poland- Zielna Centrum

The supply of heat through district energy systems is a common technology used by local municipalities across Europe, but far from all are efficient and many of the local actors’ struggle with the challenge of transforming these systems into efficient systems. Polish district heating needs modernisation, in order to improve air quality and reach the European climate goals.

How could municipality district heating systems be upgraded, and what are the benefits compared with other heating sources traditionally used in Poland? What are the available financing options and existing support programmes?

This one day workshop, 25 January, will focus on district heating systems under the framework of the EU-funded Heat Roadmap Europe project.

The workshop will include presentations by: Michał Kurtyka, Vice Minister, Ministry of Energy, Poland; Rasmus Lund, Aalborg University Denmark (AAU); Andrzej Rubczyński, Forum Energii Thomas Nowak, European Heat Pump Association; Celia Martinez Juez, UNEP Global District Energy in Cities Initiative; and, Bogusław Regulski, Chamber of Commerce for Heating, Poland.

Registration for the event is free, but compulsory and the event will take place partly in English, partly in Polish, with simultaneous interpretation available. To register for the event, click here.
