Making Heat Reuse Work

This introductory webinar outlines the foundations for successful collaboration between data centre operators and district heating network (DHN) operators. It explains the technical, operational, commercial, and governance realities that determine whether heat reuse is feasible, reliable, and mutually valuable. Participants will gain a shared baseline understanding of risks, constraints, priorities, and opportunities - before entering detailed design or commercial discussions. The session introduces the concept of the Heat Reuse Platform (HRP) and how it can support structured matching across Europe.
