In contrast to the centrally controlled heating networks of the past, these networks must now be optimally integrated into the energy system. This means that the aim should be maximum flexibility. These thermal networks should therefore also be combined with storage and conversion technology and intelligent control systems. The fourth generation thermal networks form a critical component of the infrastructure that will be needed to enable the large-scale integration of renewable energy sources.</p> </div></div></div></div> </div> </div> <div class="panel-pane pane-entity-field pane-node-field-intro-cta" > <div class="pane-content"> <div class="field field-name-field-intro-cta field-type-link-field field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even clearfix"><div class="field-item-wrapper"><a href="https://www.energyville.be/en/research/networks" target="_blank">Read more</a></div></div></div></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="panel-region--content clearfix"> <div class="container"> <div class="panel-pane pane-views pane-application-area" > <div class="pane-content"> <div class="view view-application-area view-id-application_area view-display-id-block_1 view-columns-3 view-rows-matchheight clearfix view-dom-id-a8d110592be617e35962bb6c6bd76139"> <div class="view-content"> <div class="views-row views-row-1 views-row-odd views-row-first"> <div class="ds-1col node node-feed-application-area node-teaser theme-color-blue view-mode-teaser clearfix"> <div class="field field-name-title field-type-ds field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even clearfix"><div class="field-item-wrapper"><h2><a href="/en/application-area/conversion-technology">Conversion technology</a></h2></div></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-banner-text field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even clearfix"><div class="field-item-wrapper"><p>Thermal energy conversion involves the conversion of residual heat and heat from sustainable sources – such as solar energy, biomass or geothermal heat – to other energy carriers, such as electricity, heat at a different temperature level or cold.</p> </div></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-node-link field-type-ds field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even clearfix"><div class="field-item-wrapper"><a href="/en/application-area/conversion-technology" class="">Read more</a></div></div></div></div></div> </div> <div class="views-row views-row-2 views-row-even"> <div class="ds-1col node node-feed-application-area node-teaser theme-color-blue view-mode-teaser clearfix"> <div class="field field-name-title field-type-ds field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even clearfix"><div class="field-item-wrapper"><h2><a href="/en/application-area/thermal-networks">Thermal networks</a></h2></div></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-banner-text field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even clearfix"><div class="field-item-wrapper"><p>Heating networks can act as the link between the demand for and supply of heat.
