Testbed for district heating and cooling

The testbed is unique in a national perspective and has a strong position on the European market by covering the entire process from production to distribution and use of district heating and cooling.

The test bed covers the entire process from production of heat and cooling to distribution and use of district heating and cooling in sub-stations up to 500 kW.

Full scale testing can be carried out for heat and power production with different fuels. Experimental studies are carried out in laboratory covering combustion, absorption cooling, pipes, insulation, valves, sub-stations, heat exchangers. Control and control technology strategies are done at the end user.

  • Product certification / European Certification of pipes, substations and valves
  • First accredited laboratory for Euroheat & Power
  • Test rig for full scale test of casing joint
  • Breakdown and lifetime analysis of pipes
  • Combustion studies of all types of fuels; combustion optimization, emissions, corrosion, ash handling
