Kaukolämpö, often translated as district heating, is a centralized system for distributing thermal energy for space and water heating. In a kaukolämpö system, heat is produced in a central power plant or a dedicated heat production facility. This heat can be generated from various sources, including the combustion of fossil fuels, biomass, waste incineration, or through geothermal energy. The heat is then transferred to a distribution network of insulated pipes filled with hot water or steam. This hot fluid is pumped from the production facility to individual buildings connected to the network.
Once the hot water or steam reaches a building, it passes through a heat exchanger. This device
Kaukolämpö systems offer several advantages, including potentially lower emissions compared to individual heating systems, increased energy
