French group Veolia has announced a strategic investment in the modernisation of the district heating network in Pozna, a city of 560,000 inhabitants. The project aims to eliminate coal entirely by 2030, replacing it with an energy mix based on biomethane, hydrogen and other local sources. A new cogeneration unit, already supplying 60% of the network, achieves 92% efficiency and allows for an immediate 25% reduction in CO2 emissions, up to 260,000 tonnes per year.
