Abstract

District heating (DH) systems can contribute substantially to the decarbonization of the heating sector by enabling the implementation of sustainable heating solutions on a large scale and the use of heat sources that are difficult to integrate on a small scale. This includes ambient heat (AH) and waste heat (WH), two heat sources with large, untapped potential. However, DH systems with AH and WH are subject to economic risks arising from uncertainty in the future development of key factors such as energy prices and WH availability. Accordingly, this thesis evaluated the technical and economic performance of AH and WH sources employed for the resilient decarbonization of DH networks considering economic risks due to uncertainty in future energy prices and WH availability.
