Michael Christ<p>Das Intracting-Angebot für das Wärmenetz sieht Wärme aus regionalen Holzhackschnitzel, Solarthermie, PV, Luft und Abwasser vor. Dabei wird die jeweilige Quelle dann genutzt, wenn sie am wirtschaftlichsten ist. Die Luft-Wasser-Wärmepumpe z. B. nur oberhalb 5 °C Außenlufttemperatur. Ein Wohnbaugebiet mit Kalter Nahwärme wird über den Rücklauf und eine Abwasserwärmepumpe versorgt. </p><p><a href="https://sueden.social/tags/Klimaschutz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Klimaschutz</span></a> <a href="https://sueden.social/tags/Contracting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Contracting</span></a> <a href="https://sueden.social/tags/W%C3%A4rmewende" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wärmewende</span></a></p>
Michael Christ<p>Das Konzept hinter dem Wärmenetz ist ein Energieeffizienz-Contracting. Neben der Energielieferung werden auch Einsparmaßnahmen ausgeschrieben. So kann die Heizlast reduziert, bzw. mehr Anlieger mit angeschlossen werden. Ein Intracting-Angebot bildet den Benchmark. Die Energiedienstleister müssen mit ihren Angeboten wirtschaftlicher sein und mehr Klimagase einsparen. </p><p><a href="https://sueden.social/tags/Contracting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Contracting</span></a> <a href="https://sueden.social/tags/W%C3%A4rmewende" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wärmewende</span></a> <a href="https://sueden.social/tags/Klimaschutz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Klimaschutz</span></a></p>
