7. Conclusion and outlook
According to the reference scenario for climate change, the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) estimates that energy demand for residential air conditioning in summer is set to increase more than 13-fold between 2000 and 2050, and more than 30-fold by 2100.
It is therefore important to emphasize that district cooling helps to meet the growing demand for air conditioning in buildings. Air conditioning has become increasingly essential in many cases, particularly in urban centers, which are the most affected by RFU.
The design of a new SFN and the problems to be solved in its implementation naturally differ depending on whether it concerns an already-developed area or a planned new district. These include, for example, the location of centralized installations, the choice of several installations (with the possibility of using...
