District Energy and the Role of the Private Sector
.
Enter district energy: An old technology that’s enjoying a renewed interest from cities worldwide. The beauty of a community energy system is that it shares infrastructure, leverages economies of scale, and has the potential of producing low-carbon heating for neighbourhoods. The purpose of this dialogue is to explore district energy from the perspective of the private sector and the following questions:
- What is the private sector’s role in developing and operating district energy?
- What do municipalities, developers, and financiers need to do in order to encourage the development of district energy systems?
- What is the potential for district energy in Metro Vancouver?
