FAQ - District cooling

How does district cooling work?
Chevron down

In a district cooling network the energy is redrawn from the warm buildings to the district cooling water. The energy in the network can then either be reclaimed to bring heat to buildings and tap water in wintertime or be cooled down with for example environmental friendly sea water in summertime.
