Heat supply planning for the ecological housing community Munksøgård

The techno-economic energy system analysis is performed by TIMES-DK model, which optimizes over all sectors in Denmark until 2050. The connection to district heating proved to be optimal from the system perspective. A spreadsheet model has been developed to perform the private-economic analysis and the evaluation of externalities. New biomass boilers proved to be the cheapest from the private-economic perspective; district heating came close. At the voting, heat pumps and biomass boilers received the most votes. One of these two solutions will be implemented. Why district heating received the least votes calls for detailed investigation.
