District heating and cooling

District heating and cooling is a system for distributing hot or cold steam and water generated in a centralised location for residential and commercial heating requirements such as space heating and water heating. The heat is often obtained from a cogeneration plant burning fossil fuels but increasingly biomass. Heat-only boiler stations, geothermal heating and central solar heating are also used.
