USES4HEAT
Underground Large Scale Seasonal Energy Storage for Decarbonised and Reliable Heat
USES4HEAT is EU-funded project which aims to accelerate the decarbonization of heating and cooling by demonstrating innovative, large-scale underground seasonal thermal energy storage (UTES) solutions. By integrating them into local district heating networks, the project will harness renewable sources like waste heat, solar thermal, and geothermal energy, proving their techno-economic and environmental viability. With demonstration sites in Italy and Norway, and replication efforts in four other European cities, USES4HEAT is set to promote sustainable heating solutions across the EU.
