District heating operation control

The new EU directive EPBD

Energy classes A-G are based on the energy performance of the building compared to current new build requirements. For properties with a lower energy rating, this not only means higher operating costs, but it can also mean more expensive loans and a lower property value.

For apartment buildings in Sweden, the new EU directive EPBD, Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, will probably put the greatest pressure on E, F and G. The question many people ask is what measures are most profitable to do, where to start and what to prioritise?

What is most profitable to do?

Pressure, flow and temperatures are what you should keep track of in a heating system and everything is connected. Our experience is that the most profitable thing to do in a heating system is to keep track of these parameters by having a well thought-out operating strategy.

An operational strategy is, among other things, about routines such as who should do what and how often. Measuring the efficiency of a district heat exchanger regularly is a profitable routine. Feel free to use our calculator to calculate the efficiency of your heat exchangers!

Here's how it works

With our operational control service, we help you to identify that the basic functions of your district heating systems are working properly. Our work will lead to safer, more efficient and sustainable operation of your business.

If you want to use the service as a training programme, that's fine too. This means that your operating technicians will accompany you in the sub-centres when we carry out the analyses, and then you can continue the work on your own when we have finished. We are always available for technical support!
