A number of synergies have yet to be unlocked between district heating and cooling networks and industries, with both sectors looking to decarbonise. Both sectors are highly complementary.The ability to recover excess heat from industrial processes—and more recently the likes of data centres—is opening new opportunities to help decarbonise district networks by supplying sustainable heat to residential or commercial buildings. But the rollout of new networks and the forethought to couple them with industrial heat sources is lacking.This week’s episode of Watt Matters is a special live recording that formed part of the Euroheat & Power congress in Turin (May 22nd-24th).David and Michaela are joined by Ana Cardoso from the Portuguese energy agency, Adene; Emanuele Pingaro of heating engineering firm Turboden; Malgosia Ryback from the Confederation of European Paper Industries; and Carlo Semeraro of thermal solar company Absolicon Solar Collector to discuss the issues facing the combination of district heating and industry.Enjoy the show.If you have any thoughts or questions about anything that has been discussed in this week’s episode, you can reach us at our Twitter accounts:Ana Cardoso Adene: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anaisabelcardoso/Emanuele Pingaro: https://www.linkedin.com/in/emanuele-pingaro-011a25135/Malgosia Ryback: https://twitter.com/malgosiarybak?lang=enCarlo Semeraro: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carlo-matteo-semeraro-42a45a27/Michaela Holl: https://twitter.com/CitizenSane1Jan Rosenow: https://twitter.com/janrosenowDavid Weston: https://twitter.com/DaveW_FORESIGHT@WattMattersPod: https://twitter.com/WattMattersPodFORESIGHT Climate & Energy: https://twitter.com/FORESIGHTdkListen and subscribe to Watt Matters wherever you get podcasts.
