Our district heating for Hermsdorf

HolzlandWärme - closer than you think

Contrary to what the name "district or long distance heating" might suggest, our environmentally friendly and comfortable HolzlandWärme is generated right here in Hermsdorf. In this way, it is nearby, but still far from your property. The heat is largely generated in highly efficient combined heat and power plants (CHP plants) using combined heat and power. Boiler plants supplement the generation of heat. Currently, we invest in a modern plant for innovative CHP generation, which is scheduled to go into operation in the second quarter of 2023. This will generate district heating very flexibly with three CHP units, a power-to-heat plant (electricity-to-heat) and a heat pump. 

Via our district heating network, the heat is piped directly to you as hot water. Via the house connection station in your building, the supplied heat is transferred to the house system, where you can use it for heating and preparing hot water. Then, the cooled water flows back to our generation plants via the closed circuit and is heated again.

The owner of the heat generation plant is job Jenaer Objektmanagement- und Betriebsgesellschaft - a joint subsidiary of the city of Hermsdorf and Stadtwerke Energie.
