Pilot project in Vinkovci, Spačva
PILOT SCOPE
The Energy Institute Hrvoje Požar will conduct the tender (June 2018) for co-financing feasibility study in Spačva.
Expected outcomes from the feasibility study:
- analysis of produced heat energy,
- flow chart diagram of heat energy with defined useful and waste heat energy (source, quantity, carrier and temperature),
- technical and economical evaluation of waste heat utilization measures.
MAIN STAKEHOLDERS INVOLVED
