On behalf of the Organisers, Wärtsilä and WysokieNapiecie.pl, we would like to cordially invite you to the Conference ‘New heating - cost-effective, distributed, decarbonised’, which will be held on the 5 November 2024 at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Krakow, Poland.
The transformation and decarbonisation of the district heating industry is a process in which a number of challenges must be taken into account: the viability and availability of individual technologies, the cooperation of distributed energy sources and the financial capacity of local heat suppliers. We will be discussing how to move away from coal in Polish district heating plants, especially in smaller cities, among specialists from Poland and Europe.
We will be very pleased if you accept our invitation. In order to confirm your attendance, we kindly ask you to contact XXXX at email address XXXX.
