With investments in networks, a strategic modernization of buildings and a solid digitalisation process, Europe&#8217;s existing infrastructure can become an important lever in the energy transition.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm;\"><span style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; color: black;\">The Congress, during three days of intense debate and in-depth analysis, underscored the importance of digitalization strategies in unlocking transformation within the DHC industry. The deployment of district heating and cooling is essential to tapping into Europe&#8217;s abundant renewable and excess heat recovery sources. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; color: black;\"><strong>The potential, estimated at over 2000 TWh\/year, surpasses Europe&#8217;s total forecasted heat demand for 2050.<\/strong> Progress begins with identifying waste heat and recycling opportunities from demand to supply, enhanced by digital solutions. These solutions enable the efficient integration of various heat sources, optimizing both production networks for utilities and the heat used in buildings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 12.0pt 0cm
