Not only in Germany is the demand for district heating systems continuously growing. So ENERPIPE converted the former Scottish military prison Cultybraggan into a modern business park with district heating from renewable energy sources.

Recently one of the largest bavarian local heating networks was put into operation on a cooperative basis. The experts of ENERPIPE were included from the first begining. 

Project data

• Connection user: 195
• Route length: 10.500 m
• Thermal output/year: 6.800.000kWh/year
• Saving in heating oil: 700.000 l/year
• Saving in CO² per year: 1.600.000 kg CO²/year
• Large-sized buffer storages: 2 (each with 80m³)
• Biogas plants: 760 kW
• Wood chip heating (peak load boiler): 990kW
• oil burner as safety

After a two weeks test operation, the citizens of Heinersreuth are supplied from now on with renewable energy.
