Summer comfort, decarbonization and economic performance: new reasons to consider geothermal energy

Description
Summer comfort, decarbonization and economic performance: new reasons to consider geothermal energy Why are geothermal projects experiencing renewed growth today, driven by geocooling, energy transition objectives, and particularly favorable financing conditions? With growing cooling demand, decarbonization targets, and recent changes in support mechanisms, geothermal energy is becoming an increasingly competitive solution for local authorities, real estate stakeholders, and industrial companies. Financing opportunities through the Energy Savings Certificates (CEE) scheme, sometimes combined with the Heat Fund (Fonds Chaleur), can now significantly improve the economic viability of many projects. Through concrete case studies and feedback from projects, Antea Group will provide insights into these new opportunities.

HEAT NETWORKS TO SCALE UP DECARBONIZATION IN HOUSING

Etienne BABEAUStéphane BAUMONTGaëtan DAUJEANAude RICHARDFrederik THURE
Description
District heating networks powered by renewable and recovered energy are among the most powerful tools for rapidly decarbonizing the building sector. Nordic models have demonstrated this for several decades: when well-planned, supported, and connected on a large scale, these networks enable a massive shift away from fossil fuels. In France, the potential remains considerable but is still underutilized. The Multi-Year Energy Plan (PPE3) sets an ambitious goal: to triple the number of district heating networks. This requires a genuine shift in scale: accelerating projects, securing business models, mobilizing local governments, connecting more multi-unit housing, and making better use of local resources. This roundtable will compare European experiences with French realities to identify persistent barriers to deployment: financing, public acceptance, regional engineering, building connections, availability of renewable heat, and local governance. Above all, it will examine the conditions needed to make district heating networks a central tool for the widespread decarbonization of housing. How can the threefold increase announced by the PPE3 be transformed into a truly operational pathway? What role should local governments play in local energy planning?
