Roadmaps are ready: now what?? Exploring the realities of the heat transition
This one-day event is jointly organised by the Horizon 2020 projects Heat Roadmap Europe 4 (HRE4) and ReUseHeat. For HRE4, it is the closing event where the final low-carbon heating and cooling strategies will be presented, their contribution to the EU 2050 long-term strategy and implementation at the national level will be discussed. The complementary ReUseHeat workshop will focus on mapping of urban excess heat sources, business models and bankability of such projects. The detailed programme with session descriptions will be available soon.
Please be aware of the nationwide strike in Belgium on 13 February 2019, which might heavily affect public transportation in the country. When planning your trip, please consider arriving to Brussels the day before the event and staying in a hotel in a walking distance from the event venue.
