When usingcrude statistical l<strong>and</strong> area values for plot ratiocalculati<strong>on</strong>s, there is a potential bias of overestimatingdistributi<strong>on</strong> capital cost levels in these suburban areas,since actual habitati<strong>on</strong>s plausibly <strong>on</strong>ly occupy parts ofthe l<strong>and</strong> area at h<strong>and</strong>. In these occasi<strong>on</strong>s, effectivewidth values arrived at by use of eq. (9). have acompensating effect by rapidly increasing it‘s value atlow plot ratio levels, <strong>and</strong>, hence, rendering loweranticipated distributi<strong>on</strong> capital cost levels.CONCLUSIONThe main c<strong>on</strong>clusi<strong>on</strong> from this analysis is that thec<strong>on</strong>cept of effective width offers a new simple shortcutfor quick estimati<strong>on</strong>s of capital investments for heatdistributi<strong>on</strong> in virgin urban areas.This c<strong>on</strong>clusi<strong>on</strong> is especially valid if the effective widthhas almost a c<strong>on</strong>stant value over a plot ratio of 0.5 aspreliminary stated from Figure 4. Further data collecti<strong>on</strong>will show how true this new finding will be.REFERENCES[1] Frederiksen S. <strong>and</strong> Werner S, Fjärrvärme – teori,teknik och funkti<strong>on</strong> (<strong>District</strong> <strong>Heating</strong> – theory,technology <strong>and</strong> functi<strong>on</strong>).

The existing districtheating networks are generally run by large heatingplants or combined heat <strong>and</strong> power plants fired withfossil fuels.To combine these two systems, a feasibility study wascompleted with a focus <strong>on</strong> the district heating grid inMannheim, Germany, <strong>and</strong> with a focus <strong>on</strong> solar thermalheat. Other renewable energy heat sources,geothermal heat <strong>and</strong> heat from biomass, are includedfor a comparis<strong>on</strong>.The study focuses <strong>on</strong> the heat price as a key figure toanalyse the ec<strong>on</strong>omic feasibility. The technicalfeasibility has been evaluated by using a simulati<strong>on</strong>model of a sec<strong>on</strong>dary district heating grid, which isoperated <strong>on</strong> a low flow temperature level of 70 °C <strong>and</strong>which is c<strong>on</strong>nected to a central solar thermal energyplant. The paper describes which technical <strong>and</strong>ec<strong>on</strong>omic framework c<strong>on</strong>diti<strong>on</strong>s are necessary forimplementing renewable energy into large-scale districtheating systems. The calculati<strong>on</strong>s show that incomparis<strong>on</strong> with other renewable heat sources solarheat has the highest heat costs ranging from7,7 ct/kWh to 14,5 ct/kWh depending <strong>on</strong> the plant size,the solar fracti<strong>on</strong> <strong>and</strong> the use of a storage system. Themajor technical problems for integrating solar heat intoa heat grid are the pressure difference between theflow pipe <strong>and</strong> return pipe <strong>and</strong> the low temperature theflat plate solar collectors are working with.INTRODUCTIONBased <strong>on</strong> the protocol of Kyoto <strong>and</strong> Europeanregulati<strong>on</strong>s a high reducti<strong>on</strong> of CO 2 emissi<strong>on</strong>s inGermany is necessary. To achieve those goals, anexpansi<strong>on</strong> of renewable energy in the heat market isrequired. In Germany the major aim to reach is a shareof 50 % renewable energy in the heat market by 2050.Furthermore, 50 % of the renewable heat is supposedto be c<strong>on</strong>tributed by a heating grid. [13]To achieve these goals, different governmental as wellas local support mechanism <strong>and</strong> financial subsidies areavailable. If the heat producti<strong>on</strong> is combined with anelectricity producti<strong>on</strong>, the major financial support isbased <strong>on</strong> the EEG (German law for renewable energy).If the used technology just produces heat, a financialaid from the BAFA (Federal Office of Ec<strong>on</strong>omics <strong>and</strong>Export C<strong>on</strong>trol, Germany) or KfW (bank under c<strong>on</strong>trolof the Federal Republic, Germany) is possible. Thereare different regulati<strong>on</strong>s which have to be fulfilled bythe project in order to be eligible for those subsidies [8].Main criteria are the size <strong>and</strong> type of the investor <strong>and</strong>planner, the type of technology <strong>and</strong> the size of the heatplant <strong>and</strong> of the storage tank.Previous studies [2], [12], [16], [18] showed that solarthermal energy is mostly used in single-family houses<strong>and</strong> smaller heating grids combined with seas<strong>on</strong>al heatstorage systems. Those systems are still indevelopment <strong>and</strong> need financial support to be realized.Most of these heating grids run with a lower flowtemperature <strong>and</strong> use either fossil fuels or heat frombiomass for an auxiliary heat generati<strong>on</strong>. The largestsolar thermal district heat system in Germany is locatedin Crailsheim. It covers an area of approx. 7300 m² ofsolar collectors with two buffer tanks with a combinedvolume of about 500 m³ as thermal storage. In additi<strong>on</strong>a seas<strong>on</strong>al geothermal storage has been built whichwill cover 50 % of the heat dem<strong>and</strong> for about 2000residents. This research project has heat producti<strong>on</strong>costs without any financial support of about 19 ct/kWh.This sum will be reduced depending <strong>on</strong> the possiblesubsidies. [12] Reported technical difficulties weremostly in the thermal storage technology. There werelittle problems with the collectors as comm<strong>on</strong> flat platecollectors were used which are commercially available<strong>and</strong> used in large numbers in smaller systems.The project in Crailsheim has shown the technicalfeasibility of a system with a seas<strong>on</strong>al thermal storage,but it also shows that c<strong>on</strong>siderable costs are involved.Furthermore, if a single-family house will install aseas<strong>on</strong>al storage to get a solar fracti<strong>on</strong> above 50 %, itneeds more than 10 m³ of hot water storage(depending <strong>on</strong> the building type <strong>and</strong> planned solarfracti<strong>on</strong>). However, in comm<strong>on</strong> buildings there isn‘tenough room for that size of storage [17]. Those twoaspects show that the use of a heating grid couldsignificantly reduce the costs of the solar thermalsystems <strong>and</strong> could save space otherwise necessary fora storage tank.The paper will give an overview of how the expansi<strong>on</strong>of renewable energy in the heat market will be possible132
