📢 Webinar: Resilient heat, flexible power: A new role for CHP in Europe's energy transition If you are involved with district heating in Europe, or want to make sure the best decisions are made that will have a positive impact on the continent's energy future, this webinar is a must-attend. As electricity markets become more volatile, district heating operators face a difficult balancing act: delivering affordable, reliable heat while adapting to a power system with increasing shares of renewable generation. On 20 October at 10:00 — 10:45 CEST, join the discussion with these experts: 🔹 Aurélie Beauvais, Managing Director, Euroheat & Power 🔹 Krzysztof Lokaj, Senior Manager, Growth & Development, Africa & Europe, Wärtsilä Energy 🔹 Karol Wolański, Head of Flexibility and Aggregation, Respect Energy We’ll look at how two-way sector coupling can enable district heating assets to respond to both heat and power markets, including opportunities in wholesale, balancing and capacity markets.

Two-way sector coupling can enable district heating assets to respond to both heat and power markets and through that generate more revenue. But before it can achieve that, we have to understand it's capabilities. On 20 October at 10:00 — 10:45 CEST, join the discussion as experts from Wärtsilä Energy, Euroheat & Power and Respect Energy unpack the value this technology can bring to district heating in Europe. Watch the video to get a brief understanding of two-way sector coupling, and then attend the webinar for actionable insights from: 🔹 Aurélie Beauvais, Managing Director, Euroheat & Power 🔹 Krzysztof Lokaj, Senior Manager, Growth & Development, Africa & Europe, Wärtsilä Energy 🔹 Karol Wolański, Head of Flexibility and Aggregation, Respect Energy Webinar details: 📅 20 October 🕙 10:00 — 10:45 CEST

What does it really take to achieve universal energy access in Africa? In the latest episode of the Energy Situation Room, we sit down with Rita Madeira from the International Energy Agency (IEA) and Louis Strydom from Wärtsilä Energy to explore one of the biggest energy challenges facing the continent today. The conversation goes beyond connection numbers and electrification targets. It looks at the wider picture: ⚡ Why reliable and affordable electricity matters just as much as access ⚡ The role of grid expansion, mini-grids and standalone solutions ⚡ How investment, planning and policy need to work together ⚡ Why energy access should ultimately be measured by the opportunities it creates for people, communities and businesses With hundreds of millions of people in Sub-Saharan Africa still lacking access to electricity, the discussion offers valuable insights into the actions needed to accelerate progress. 🎧 Listen now on Spotify or Apple Podcasts, or here: https://lnkd.in/dY5hQi4D #EnergyTransition #EnergyAccess #Africa #PowerSystems #Electricity #Sustainability #WartsilaEnergy #EnergySituationRoom

How do you build energy infrastructure that's resilient for the needs of today while remaining adaptable for those of tomorrow? As demand for digital infrastructure expands, grid limitations are becoming a critical barrier to growth. Delivering 60 MW from Wärtsilä-powered engines, discover how Wärtsilä, Pure DC and AVK worked together to approach the challenge differently.

How do you build energy infrastructure that's resilient for the needs of today while remaining adaptable for those of tomorrow? As demand for digital infrastructure expands, grid limitations are becoming a critical barrier to growth. Wärtsilä, Pure DC and AVK worked together to approach the challenge differently utilising a microgrid with Wärtsilä 34DF engines providing primary power. ✅ 60 MW of future-ready power ✅ Designed to deliver secure, uninterrupted power for critical operations. ✅ Gas as primary fuel, with HVO for backup capability. ✅ Hydrogen-blend ready and CHP-ready, allowing future readiness and opportunities. Explore the thinking behind this success story in data centre microgrid innovation.

Renewables need flexibility to deliver reliability Renewables are becoming the new baseload, but they cannot deliver reliable electricity alone. Through sector coupling, district heating can become one of the biggest sources of flexibility in decarbonised power systems.
