GIS based analysis of future district heating potential in Denmark

摘要: Abstract The physical placement of buildings is important when determining the potential for DH (district heating). Good locations are mainly determined by having both a large heat demand within certain area and access to local resources. In recent years, in Denmark have been mapped atlas which includes all their demands. This article focuses on developing method assessing costs associated with supplying these DH. analysis based existing areas Denmark. By finding production cost adding transmission distribution costs, it possible find economic feasibility findings indicate that there expanding Denmark, but this differs from area. It economically feasible expand many areas, others would require reductions losses order expansions be feasible. also shows boundaries expansion including costs. These not static, change according different factors.
