Ingenium worked out heat (policy) plans and/or inventories of heat supply and demand on behalf of the cities of Mechelen, Bruges, Herentals, Lier and Vilvoorde and the municipality of Knokke-Heist.

These plans inventoried the heat demand of the entire territory, before and after building renovation, in addition to the supply of heat (waste heat, potential for geothermal, sewage, aquathermy, sewerage, data heat...). The aim was to draw up heat zoning maps and identify interesting heat exchange projects in heat clusters.

This was conducted for these cities and towns:

- City of Mechelen: drafting heat zoning maps,  

- City of Bruges: inventory of heat sources and linkage to heat demand  

- City of Herentals: inventory of heat sources and linkage to heat demand  

- Municipality of Knokke-Heist: drafting heat policy plan, together with Transition Stories  

- City of Vilvoorde: drafting heat policy plan, csociated with Transition Stories

- City of Lier: drafting heat zoning maps

Ingenium has a proven experience the screening of a territory for potential heat clusters, mapping of large heat consumers and potential sources and in intensive consultation with stakeholders such as city departments in the preparation of heat policy plans and heat zoning maps.
