On 15th of June, EGEC and partners of the FROnT project organised a very successful conference on how to make the EU number one in renewable heating and cooling.
One of the speakers, Ragnheiður Elín Árnadóttir, Icelandic Minister of Industry and Commerce, made an inspiring speech on the challenges we face in promoting renewables in heating and cooling: “The promotion and development of geothermal energy for district heating will require concentrated and combined efforts. New geothermal heat plants are competing with well-established district heating systems, that by nature are monopolies, fuelled by gas, coal or wood. A level playing field is needed. This is one of the main challenges we need to discuss and work on.”
