Renewable energy
The transition towards renewable energy is an urgent matter. Heating and cooling of buildings contributes substantially to the emission of greenhouse gasses today. Thermonet provides a way to change that.
Collaborative
Thermonets provide a collaborative approach to green heating and cooling. Instead of everyone having their own energy source, connecting to a thermonet open up a new way of collaborating.
Heating and cooling
Utilizing the geological layers of the underground, either near the surface or deep into the ground, the thermonet acts a huge thermal battery that provides a balance between heating and cooling.
Thermonet presentations
The videos below are from a workshop held in Barcelona with the title: “5th generation decentralized urban cooling and heating networks with geothermal energy and other renewable sources”
The full event, which took place at the COEIC and which has been organized by the Geothermal Working Group (GTG) of the Catalan Energy Cluster (CEEC), the Cartographic and Geological Institute of Catalonia (ICGC) and the Catalan Institute of Energy (ICAEN), had the participation of more than a hundred professionals in the field of geothermal energy. This edition was meant to introduce the concept of modern or 5th generation District Cooling and Heating Networks (5GDHC networks).
