New BSR project in Petrozavodsk

After years of persistent negotiations, the Russian Federation, the European Commission, and Germany as the member state hosting the Managing Authority of Interreg Baltic Sea Region have signed a Financing Agreement. It means that all Russian partners of BSR projects became full members of the partners' pool. 

On 5.03.2018 ANO EEC has signed the Partnership Agreement for the BSR Interreg / ENI project  "Low Temperature District Heating for the Baltic Sea Region" (LowTEMP). This project makes the district heating supply in the partner regions smarter and more sustainable. Also it  promotes the installation of 4th generation district heating networks.

So, ANO EEC together with "PKS Teploseti" have started new project which should be implemented until 30.09.2020.

Project description

Background
The energy demand for heating and cooling in Europe and the Baltic Sea Region is responsible for more than one third of the final energy consumption. Thus, the deployment of more efficient and innovative DH technologies is key to a successful energy management in cities and districts. Efficient DH with LTDH technologies offer new possibilities for increased energy efficiency with reduced fossil energy consumption, which will help to achieve the EU targets in reduction of CO2 emissions.

The LowTEMP project promotes smart and future-oriented heating supply technologies using low temperature grid structures. The targets of the project are in line with the objectives of the Energy Efficiency Directive (2012) and comply to the Renewable Energy Directive (2009) and the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (2010), which require Member States to develop ambitious policies as regards the use of renewable energy sources and energy efficiency in heating and cooling networks.

The project contributes to the aims of the EU2020, by promoting energy efficiency, the use of renewable sources and reducing CO2 emissions, to national and European spatial development policies as well as the EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region (EUSBSR).

The LowTEMP project is supported by the European Union (European Regional Development Fund & European Neighbourhood Instrument) in the frame of the Interreg Baltic Sea Region Programme 2014-2020

Project objectives
The 19 project partners from nine Baltic Sea Region (BSR) countries will make district heating (DH) in their municipalities or regions, but also on a broader scale in other regions, more sustainable by integrating low temperature district heating (LTDH) solutions in their energy supply systems. To achieve this goal, the “Low Temperature District Heating for the Baltic Sea Region” (LowTEMP) project will raise awareness and know-how among the responsible public and private stakeholders about the necessity to deploy sustainable energy supply systems that allow the use of renewable or unused surplus heat and low temperature heat distribution.

LowTEMP will provide district heating stakeholders with know-how and strategic tools on how to plan, finance, install and manage LTDH systems.

The project partners will jointly develop a knowledge platform on DH in the BSR, assess the sustainability effects, analyse business models and funding structures for LTDH, as well as develop a training programme to increase know-how and capacities of responsible stakeholders. In addition, pilot energy strategies will be developed for selected municipalities. Also, project partners will perform pilot tests of low temperature DH technologies and measures.
