4 This project has received funding from the European Union s Horizon 22 research and innovation programme Germany: H&C energy by purposes H&C comprises 56% of Germany s final energy demand. Very little process needs, but very high need for space and process.

5 This project has received funding from the European Union s Horizon 22 research and innovation programme H&C energy by energy carriers Germany accounts for 22% of the EU28 s total delivered H&C demand. Compared to the EU28, it uses less biomass, less electricity and more oil for H&C. 1% % % Gas Oil 8% 4% Biomass Electricity 3% 1% % % District Coal 8% 9% 42% Others (fossil) Heat pumps Solar thermal Others (RES) 8% 8% 42% 1% Germany H&C (1,384 TWh) 2% EU28 H&C (6352 TWh) Sectors by purposes and energy carriers German industries are overwhelmingly dominated by process, other sectors by space. All sectors rely much on fossil fuels, especially gas, while industry also relies on coal and the other sectors on oil TWh 512 TWh 292 TWh Industry Residential Services Process Process Other TWh 512 TWh 292 TWh Industry Residential Services Solar thermal Others (RES) Others (fossil) Oil Heat pumps (electric) Gas Electricity District Coal Biomass 5

6 This project has received funding from the European Union s Horizon 22 research and innovation programme Industry sub-sectors by H&C purposes German industry is dominated by higher temperature processes. Most of this is used for the metals industry, (petro-)chemicals and non-metallic minerals. 1% 1% 2% 16 Process <1 C Process 1-2 C Process 2-5 C 17% Process >5 C 9% 46% Process <-3 C % Process -3- C Process -15 C German industry (512 TWh) Industry sub-sectors by energy carriers To attain such high temperatures, German industry relies mostly on fossil fuels.
