France's objectives for combating climate change are based on two priorities: energy sobriety and the development of renewable energies. With 5,500 housing units planned, the Bassins à flot district will welcome more than 10,000 new inhabitants at the end of the project. For this district, which must be exemplary in terms of energy, preference has been given to the district heating network. Mixéner and EDF Optimal Solutions have joined forces to design and build the heating network for this sustainable district. The operation of the network has been entrusted to Idex. At the level of the territory, the heating network mobilizes local resources: biomass, geothermal energy, energy recovery units, anaerobic digestion. With these local and clean solutions, more than 8,000 tonnes of CO 2 will not be released into the atmosphere. Legal notices | © Mixéner 2015
