Energy-efficient Brühl
Together,einsand Chemnitz University of Technology have developed an energy neighbourhood concept for Brühl, which envisages the large-scale use of renewable energies and the expansion of a low-temperature district heating network. The concept is being subsidised as a pilot project by the city of Chemnitz, the federal government and the Free State of Saxony.
There are two reasons for connecting the entire neighbourhood to environmentally friendly LowEx district heating: the proximity to our technical facilities and the fact that many of the houses in the Brühl district have a district heating connection.The solar heat is transported into the houses via insulated pipework. Heating systems in the buildings ensure that there is enough energy everywhere but not too much anywhere. In this way, connected customers always receive a proportion of renewable energy "by pipe post" free of charge.
Development of a concept for a sustainable, energy-efficient city centre district by eins energie in sachsen
- Heat supply for households as the greatest potential for energy savings
- Existing district heating infrastructure as the best basis for an energy-efficient overall system
- Development of a sustainable and energy-efficient heat supply through operation as a LowEx system and coupling with solar thermal energy
- Further increase in energy efficiency by connecting large TU buildings to the district cooling network
Innovative solutions through collaboration with Chemnitz University of Technology and Glauchau University of Cooperative Education
- Development of system solutions for energy treatment, energy distribution and suitable building services
