Coupled Heating and Cooling Supply for Sports Facilities
EA Systems Dresden GmbH is involved in developing a sustainable and efficient energy concept for Oberhof’s sports facilities. Alongside surveying the initial condition and assessing individual measures in the facilities, the work investigates their interconnection through a heating and cooling network. Major winter sports events and reliable training conditions, including in summer, present significant planning challenges.
