Feasibility study for district heating and cooling network

Exergo can help you define and plan your energy network

We guide you through the energy planning process, with the aim of designing the most sustainable, affordable and efficient network possible.

Why carry out a feasibility study for a district heating network?

The feasibility study is the first key stage in setting up a local energy network. It enables us to :

• Identify the demand for heating and cooling in your area

• Evaluate the available renewable and recovered energy resources

• Validate the technical, economic, legal and environmental feasibility of the project (multi-criteria analysis)

• Access financial aid, in particular from Public Funds, by complying with the Referecence Guidelines

This study is essential for local authorities, public or private companies, or for projects on a neighbourhood scale.
