Abstract: Ambitious greenhouse gas emission reduction targets set by EU pose a significant challenge for the member countries. District heating as an efficient solution for heat supply and distribution can play a major part in meeting these targets. One key issue concerning district heating is the integration of renewables. The current study focuses on solar assisted district heating systems.
