In the latest episode of the podcast "Utility 4.0 The future of energy" Peter got the chance to talk to Timo Eggers about district heating networks, the heatbeat Digital Twin and heat pumps.

• How do district heating networks and heat pumps actually work?
• When is a district heating network suitable, when does a heat pump have advantages?
• What can we learn from our neighbors in Denmark and why can't everyone be connected to a heat network tomorrow?
• Where is optimization potential in existing district heating networks and how can this be achieved with (sometimes simple) measures?
• And of course: how can our heatbeat Digital Twin be used for this task?

Timo and Peter take a lot of time to ask these questions and exchange answers, solutions and ideas. We think the result is really great and recommend the episode with heatbeat as well as the other episodes of the podcast. You can find the podcast on Apple or Spotify.
