Does Copenhagen use seawater to create a district cooling system?

Since 2010, Copenhagen has used seawater to create a district cooling system and the network is still expanding. There is also a drive to replace the fossil fuels used in peak and reserve load boilers in district heating with biofuel, electric boilers and biogas (see panel, ‘Energy sources in Copenhagen’).

Does Copenhagen have a hot water transmission system?

Will Copenhagen's new generation of CHP power plants become net zero?

While Copenhagen’s new generation of CHP power plants are receiving architectural plaudits (and Kara/Noveren’s waste incinerator in Roskilde can be added to this list), they are only part of its transition to net zero. The integration of less-visible renewables into existing DH networks is also an important element of the 2025 roadmap.
