The digital transformation and feasibility planner.

Easily identify heating network areas, define possible route options and assign building-specific potential areas

Basically, it’s quite simple: the starting point for any heating strategy and transformation and feasibility planning is the identification of potential areas and possible routes for new heating networks or network expansions. Ideally, the two should be linked together – i.e. the existing and new route sections and the adjacent buildings with their respective heating requirements. Only on this basis can individual variants, heat quantity ramp-ups and sales potentials be analyzed and the optimum heating network plan developed?

And this is exactly what the Kelvin Green HeatMap makes possible – tailored to the needs of heat suppliers without any unnecessary frills. Simply upload building data from the supply area (either your own or statistical data purchased from Kelvin Green’s data partner) and get started.

The advantages are obvious: significant time savings, productive collaboration within the team or with the planning service provider, quick identification of lucrative routes. The most important data basis for the development of a transformation plan or a feasibility study with the planning service provider is…

Finding the best way to a green heating network in a structured and efficient way.

Anyone starting to draw up a transformation plan or a feasibility study is quickly overwhelmed by the complexity. And once you have developed an initial concept, new developments have already emerged for possible routes, heat generation options or funding conditions – so it’s all over again? And then there is an almost infinite number of possible variants – which of these is the optimal one if everything is simply connected to everything else?

The Kelvin Green HeatPlan takes you by the hand, guides you through all aspects of heat network planning in a structured manner and saves you up to 50% of the time needed to develop a BEW-compliant transformation plan (or feasibility study). The good thing is that all variables, from individual building heat requirements and the route concept to the appropriate heat generation concept, are dynamically linked and result in a comprehensive business case analysis. In addition, numerous reference values are stored, e.g. for energy price developments or network construction costs, which can be used for the rough concept and quick results and easily adapted later if necessary.

With the building-specific heat potential areas and assigned route sections (both easy to design in the Kelvin Green HeatMap) as well as some basic conceptual assumptions, simple heat load profiles up to 2045 can then be carried out for each generator or a rough calculation of the necessary network dimensioning in no time at all. And best of all: with just a few clicks, countless different assumptions and variants can be run through and checked for their economic viability.
