PPC digitalises the heat transition

Wärme spielt eine zentrale Rolle in der Energiewende. Rund die Hälfte des gesamten Energieverbrauchs in Deutschland entfällt auf den Wärmesektor. Durch die zunehmende Elektrifizierung dieses Energieträgers entstehen sowohl unmittelbare Wechselwirkungen mit der Stromversorgung als auch auch mittelbare Synergien bei der Digitalisierung der Energiewende. Dies betrifft nicht nur dezentrale Systeme wie Gebäudewärmepumpen. Im gesamten Fernwärmenetz müssen Hausübergabestationen und deren Betriebsführung cybersicher digitalisiert werden
