District heating

Etelä-Savon Energia

Mikkeli city, the home of Savosolar received the “Inspiring Solution Award” in 2018 Celsius City Summit for the Ristiina Village project. It is a green district heating energy concept with a clever combination of solar thermal and wood chips.

Savosolar was involved in this award winning project by delivering turn-key solar district heating installation to the Ristiina district heating plant.

FORS A/S

FORS A/S is an energy company owned by three Danish municipalities. Their district heating plant in Jyderup has about 900 customers and produces about 5000 MWh solar thermal energy per year. For the rest of its energy production, the plant uses two gas boilers with 7 MW thermal capacity and two gas engines with 6 MW electrical capacity.

In Jyderup, the collector field is a so-called hybrid field, with both single and double glazed collectors. The single glazed collectors are in the cold end of the collector rows and increase the low temperature as rapidly as possible, while the double glazed collectors are located in the warm side of the collector rows where it is more important to reduce the heat losses. The collector field also has double stanchions which allows for two collector rows to connect to one and the same pipe and thereby save costs and thermal losses.

Palau-del-Vidre

In collaboration with Eiffage Energy Systèmes, Savosolar is providing a solar thermal plant on trackers to supply heat to the greenhouses of Les Serres Vermeil, an organic vegetable grower located in Palau-del-Vidre, France.
Savosolar with provide a turnkey solar thermal field of 396 Savo15S collectors, as well as all the engineering of the plant and the supervision software.
