Many future topics are now gradually becoming mandatory: CO₂ balances in the energy performance certificate, the phase-out of fossil heating systems, zero-emission standards for new buildings and digital building models for every project.</p>

With 463 exabytes of data predicted to be processed daily by 2025, conventional air cooling will no longer be sufficient - neither from an energy nor an economic perspective.</p>

This means that CO₂ emissions are to be completely reduced to zero by 2050. But this requires much greater efforts than before. In the field of <a href="https://www.districtenergy.org/home">district heating</a>, the energy efficiency of existing solutions must not only be quickly optimised, but also switched to<a href="https://www.districtenergy.org/resources/industry-news"> renewable heat sources</a>, e.g. bioenergy, solar thermal energy, large-scale heat pumps and geothermal energy. In addition, the integration of secondary heat sources, such as waste heat from industrial plants and data centres, must be promoted.</p> <p>However, it is not only heat generation that poses major challenges; <a href="https://www.plasticpipe.org/BuildingConstruction/BuildingConstruction/-Applications-/DistrictEnergy-Heating-Cooling.aspx">pipeline networks </a>must also enable rapid but sustainable conversion and expansion with flexible solutions. Compared to metal systems, plastic pipes have clear advantages to offer in order to achieve the ambitious goals. The best example of this is the pre-insulated polypropylene piping system <a href="https://www.aquatherm.de/en/solutions-products/products/aquatherm-energy/">aquatherm energy</a>.</p>

Function, costs, environment - simply explained" class="hs-featured-image" style="width:auto !important; max-width:50%; float:left; margin:0 15px 15px 0;"> </a> </div> <p>Supplying several buildings, blocks of flats or even entire cities with cost-effective and environmentally friendly heat for heating and hot water – this is made possible by district heating. With this type of heat generation, hot water is not produced on site in the building itself, but in a central power or heating plant nearby.</p>

Deciding which method is best suited for the future raises important questions. For instance, how much heat is produced by a data centre operating 24/7 to handle AI applications, cloud services, and real-time data streams? And how can this waste heat be efficiently removed without increasing overall energy consumption?</p> <h2></h2>

Ice storage, heat pumps &amp; solutions from aquatherm " class="hs-featured-image" style="width:auto !important; max-width:50%; float:left; margin:0 15px 15px 0;"> </a> </div> <p>At first glance, the combination of ice storage and a heat pump may seem contradictory. However, this synergy offers a highly efficient, economical, and <a href="https://www.irena.org/-/media/Files/IRENA/Agency/Publication/2020/Nov/IRENA_Innovation_Outlook_TES_2020.pdf">sustainable solution </a>for the heating of buildings, as well as for air conditioning and cooling – which is becoming increasingly important due to more frequent extreme weather and hotter summers. aquatherm provides the corrosion-free <a href="https://www.aquatherm.de/en/solutions-products/products/aquatherm-blue/">aquatherm blue</a> plastic pipe system for connecting ice storage tanks to heat pumps and for piping the hydraulic modules. The highly efficient <a href="https://www.aquatherm.de/en/solutions-products/products/aquatherm-black/">aquatherm black</a> is used for surface heating and cooling. Additionally, the insulated <a href="https://www.aquatherm.de/en/solutions-products/products/aquatherm-energy/">aquatherm energy </a>pipe system is available for longer distances from the ice storage tank to the heat pump.</p> <p>The principle of an ice storage tank in combination with a heat pump is based on the use of the latent thermal energy that is released during the phase transition from water to ice. The intelligent combination of different technologies creates a system that is both energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. These systems are an attractive option not only for large commercial buildings but also for private residences, helping to reduce heating costs and improve sustainability in the long term.</p> <h2></h2>
