#Helsinki energy utility Helen invests100M€ (incl. 14M€ govt. grant) in new #heatPump to produce 90MWth #DistrictHeat and 60MWth #DistrictCooling.
Heat source is wastewater, that has already delivered heat to the #KatriVala heat pump station, but with heat remaining.

Heat pump should be operational in late 2025 and deliver 460 GWh/a heat.

Too bad #SeasonalStorage is not included in this project, that could add value when power price volatility increases.
