Bromölla district heating

Bromölla district heating
Bromölla, SwedenPDF Summary
By an ambitious environmental plan and a cooperation between local industries and the municipality we have created a win-win district heating scheme.We have substituted fossil oil equivalent to 50GWh by local surplus heat from a local pulp and paper industry. As our back-up we use renewable biodiesel.We provide secure, inexpensive and climate friendly heating to half the population of Bromölla. We have replaced import of fossil oil by local energy and this way created new local jobs.Bromölla is a small, low density populated town, quite similar to an American small town, without a dense town center.
