Description

Pöyry covers the consumer side of the heat and power supply. It is the ideal partner for all municipalities that want to renovate their existing district heating systems or build new systems. With the supply of heat and electricity to the municipalities houses are heated, hot water provided, and in some cases, even the cooling of houses can be ensured. The heat comes mainly from power plants and/or renewable energies to maximise the benefits of power and heat generation.
