Smart Reflex

The project Smart Reflex (Smart and Flexible 100% renewable district heating an cooling systems for European cities), has the task of introducing district heating to 6 different regions in Ireland, Germany, Spain and Italy. The project is also supported by Intelligent Energy Europe.
In the project PlanEnergi was responsible for capacity building in heating and cooling planning. Six European regions participated (Kerry and Tipperary, IE, Barcelona, ES, Schleswig Holstein and Baden-Württemberg, DE and Emilia-Romagna, IT) and learned through 3 capacity building workshops for each region to map local renewable resources, heat consumption, excess heat and efficiency potential and to use a common technology catalogue. Real cases of district heating and cooling using RES was calculated in each region. Calculation of the amount of created new workplaces was part of the calculation.
