Helsingin Energia’s DHC smart city- solution combines CHP, district heating and district cooling in the most energy-efficient way in the world. Helsingin Energia is business based and profitable energy company not subsidized by the municipality. We promote end-use energy efficiency by monitoring, reporting and providing customer guidance, and help them to make cost- and energy-efficient choices and use energy wisely. During the year 2012, we updated our strategy and action plan towards a CO2- neutral energy production.Helsinki Energy’s DHC and CHP infrastructure consists of four CHP plants. The system is supported and diversified by harnessing waste heat accumulated along the energy chain.
The DHC system enables the production of electricity corresponding double the amount of the need of Helsinki and simultaneously Helsingin Energia can supply over 90 % of the need of heat and produce cooling. Helsingin Energia manages an efficient district energy supply with energy storage and by optimising the energy use of our customers. We also aim to maximise the use of our system wherever there is need for heating or cooling.Our DHC system enables our customer to gain a LEED certified way of housing and living.
