Summary
French energy efficiency leader Dalkia is rolling out a software platform that could improve district heating system efficiency in France by up to 3 percent.
The platform, developed as part of an IT project called Rézonance, could also help Dalkia boost the renewable share of district heating energy consumption by up to 5 percent, said Nicolas Le Ru, of Dalkia’s Energy Savings Center unit.
Most of the benefits will come as a result of a simple trick that became clear once researchers began looking into detailed near-real-time data on district heating energy consumption.
The data showed that ramps in heating demand, for example on cold mornings, were being met by substations simultaneously across each district heating system.
