Time to roll up our sleeves! To achieve a fossil-free heating and cooling sector, district heating and cooling networks will need to supply at least 55% of Europe’s heat demand by 2050. An exciting prospect which will not only require the development of at least 20,370 new district heating systems, but also the modernisation and expansion of Europe’s legacy district heating and cooling infrastructure.

On this journey, fostering successful collaboration between local authorities, industries, utilities and technology providers will be key, and it all begins at the EHP Congress!

Join over 500 professionals at Euroheat & Power’s flagship business event, and the largest gathering dedicated to district heating and cooling in Europe. It offers exclusive opportunities to meet with leading district heating and cooling operators and utilities, manufacturers and solution providers championing the heating transition in Europe and beyond.
