5 1. Background This fact sheet forms part of the deliverable 2.1 in the progressheat project. The fact sheet presents data which has been collected regarding the local case municipality, Herten, up to June The municipality of Herten is located in the Ruhr Area at the west of the city Recklinghausen and at the north of Gelsenkirchen. It covers an area of 37 km² with around inhabitants and households. Thus, with approximately inhabitants per km² the population density is high compared to the average in Germany, which is 226 inhabitants per km². The unemployment rate in Herten was in November 2015 approximately 10% which is also high compared to 6%, the average unemployment rate in Germany in the same month. In the past, the city evolved by joining settlements close to each other (in opposite to a classical evolution around a historical downtown), which is why Herten can be described as decentralized city. The characteristic buildings are workmen dwellings of the mining companies. The land use is divided in areas of settlement, industry, mixed use, public use, recycling and free areas, in which the free areas cover the largest part, followed up by areas for settlement. The number of households increased in the past, although the population decreased. Thus living space is increasing per habitant. The city assumes that households with inhabitants older than 65 years will increase in future (current figures on shares are up to now only available on a map). 1.1 CO 2 emissions In 2011, the combined CO 2 emission in the municipality was approximately 419 thousand metric tons per year. The relative share for the different sectors is visualised in Figure 1. Private households account for the major share of emission, followed by the mobility and the industry sector. 5

Heating and cooling demand 2.1 Buildings Within the Climate Masterplan of Herten blocks of housings were analysed using a structured scheme with the focus on energy consumption. Within the methodology blocks of housings in Herten has been categorized in twelve classes on a map. Each class can be translated as energetic city space type. Parameters taken into account in the classification of each energetic city space type refer mainly to the structure of parcels and buildings included within a block of housing (i.e. construction age of buildings within the block, type, condition of energetic renovation, etc.). The categorization for Herten on a map is visualized in Figure 2. The methodology of classification is designed in the way that cities in Germany usually should have the data necessary to classify each block of housings available, without collecting a lot of new data (i.e. by using data from land registry offices). The methodology used for Herten is basically similar to the methodology for Germany described in the book Energetische Stadtraumtypen. 1 Based on these categories heat densities etc. can be calculated per block of housing as for each class/category key indicators are available. These indicators are based on empirical data. This has been done in the climate master plan of Herten as well. 1 Energetische Stadtraumtypen (2014), Publisher: Manfred Hegger, Jörg Dettmar; pro:21 GmbH, published in Bonn (Germany), ISBN

7 The heat demand for Herten is visualised exemplary in Figure 3. For comparison the heat demand for Herten from Peta is given in Figure 4 visualised on a map. It can be seen that the level of detail from Peta is lower in terms of spatial disaggregation. Figure 2: Energetic city space types in Herten Source: Jung Stadtkonzepte (2013). 7

9 2.2 Industry Seven industrial estates established in different historical decades are located in Herten. They cover a total area of around 350 hectares. Most of them are in the northern part (cf. Figure 5). Within these areas mainly companies from the trade, commerce and service sector are located. In the climate master plan of Herten a forecast of the energy consumption in these areas has been conducted for the year The forecast is based on the number of occupied/employed persons. As data base for key indicators a study on the energy consumption of the tertiary sector in Germany has been used. 2 The forecast is given in Table 1.

Shares are given in Figure 6. The consumption of heat provided by the DH grid differentiated by sector is given in Table 4. 5% 21% 74% Power Station Scholven (Coal) Power Station Herne (Coal) Waste incineration plant AGR Figure 6: Shares of heat provided by plant for the DH network in Herten.

Total 151 Source: Based on figures from Jung Stadtkonzepte (2013). There are plans to change the fuel mix in the district heating generation. It is planned to use waste heat from a so far unused waste incineration plant for providing heat to the district heating grid. The project is planned to be finished by A feasibility study is already being conducted. This measure will improve the CO 2 balance of the district heating network in Herten in general. 3.2 Individual heating The heat supply via individual decentralized heating system such as boilers is mainly based on fossil fuels. The consumption of natural gas, fuel oil and coal by sector is shown in Table 5 to Table 7.

Besides other balances, they also publish final energy balances differentiated by sector. We only compare the values for private households. The other sectors are not comparable as the structuring of consuming sectors is different in the climate masterplan of Herten (cf. Jung Stadtkonzepte, 2013). Furthermore a comparison for the sector industry might be misleading when not assessing the structure of Herten s industry in parallel. Table 8 Relative shares of energy carrier on final energy consumption for private households in Germany and Herten [%] in 2011 Energy carrier Germany based on AGEB Herten based on Jung Stadtkonzepte (2013) Source: Based on figures from Jung Stadtkonzepte (2013) and AGEB(2015). Difference in %pts-points. Bituminous coal 2% 0% - 2 Lignite 1% 3% + 2 Mineral oil products 21% 11% - 11 Fuel gas (natural gas, etc.) 36% 39% + 3 Electricity 21% 28% + 7 District heating 7% 19% + 12 Renewable energies 12% 0% - 12 Other Fuels 0% 0% + 0 The comparison indicates that in Herten compared to average situation in Germany the share of renewable energies is substantially lower, the share of mineral oil products is substantially lower, the share of district heating is a lot higher. However, the comparison only refers to the final energy demand. Please note that currently most of the heat provided for the DH grid comes from coal fired power plants. Thus, a fuel switch for the DH is an option that might reduce CO 2 -consumption effectively. 13

14 4. Heat resource potentials 4.1 Biomass A small biogas plant (approx. 0,5 MW) is operated in the city region fuelled with organic waste producing electricity. The potential biomass resources from forestry in the region is between 500 and GWh/y ( TJ/y) (according to Peta). The waste incineration plant in the city also produces waste heat, but currently only a small fraction of the heat available is being fed into the district heating grid (approximately lower than 10% of heat available, own estimation based on data from the utility website). However, a feasibility study is already running evaluating how to connect the incineration plant to the local DH grid economic feasible. 4.2 Solar energy 400 photovoltaic modules with a total installed power of 6 MW p are installed in Herten. According to Peta the global solar irradiation is below kwh/(m²*y). 4.3 Industry cf. section 2.2. No more information is given. 4.4 Geothermal and heat pumps Heat pumps are recommended in areas of Herten without connection to natural gas or district heating. No data on geothermal potentials around Herten is available. Herten is a former coal mining city. Although the coal mines in Herten and the area around Herten are taken out of operation several years ago, pit water from past mining activities has to be pumped permanently. It is released in nearby rivers to prevent flooding of the area. This water has temperatures of up to 20 C. Principally it can be used for large heat pumps as energy sources. However, technical requirements might be high and cost intensive due to the contamination of the pit water. Nevertheless, a demonstration project exists in a nearby city. It might be worth to evaluate weather pit water potentials exit in Herten also, when conducting the case studies more concrete. 4.5 District cooling The hospital in Herten requires cooling. It is already equipped with an adsorption chiller so that a fraction of the cooling capacity might be provided with heat coming from the district heating network; increasing the district heating utilization in the summer and thus lifting the overall efficiency of the district heating network. This could also be assessed for other buildings requiring cooling, such as warehouses, supermarkets and so on. 14
