Benefits of BigSolar integration in an existing biomass and gas fired district heating supply system are evaluated in the pre-feasibility. The added values are detected synergies between energy supply technologies, increase biomass efficiency and reduction of natural gas. Results indicate that a fully renewable district

Renewable heat from BigSolar is in synergy with the existing district heating infrastructure and CO₂-free. Heat generation costs are lower compared to current fossil-based and moreover long-term stable.

Klagenfurt’s district heating network, with a pipeline length of around 165 km, is operated by Energie Klagenfurt GmbH and supplies around 27,000 connected customers. The absorption heat pump uses the heat from the flue gas of a biomass cogeneration plant as a low-temperature heat source
