01What is being requested

The assignment concerns the realization of a complete heating plant for delivery to 461 consumers in Wageningen. The system must be able to deliver a peak load of 2.7 MW through a hybrid solution consisting of a heat pump (800 kW) and a gas boiler (LowNOx), including a buffer tank of at least 26 m³. The installation must be fully integrated within the existing building envelope of 22.5 x 8.5 x 4.4 meters.

This project aims to establish a complete district heating plant to supply 461 consumers in Wageningen, the Netherlands. The pipe network has already been contracted, and the tender for the heating plant itself is now imminent. The project is unique in that the heating plant must be integrated into an existing building located near protected nature and residential areas, where strict building regulations apply. The plant will be designed for a peak load of 2.7 MW, using a combined solution with a heat pump and gas boiler. A key consideration is compliance with the Netherlands’ strict nitrogen

02Strategic insight

Strategic insight · AI analysis
Focus on an integral 3D design to fit all technical components within the strict building dimensions. Develop a phasing plan that takes nitrogen legislation into account, specifically regarding the installation of the gas boiler. Ensure a modular design that utilizes both the electrical capacity (up to 2 MVA) and the physical space for a larger buffer tank in the future.

03Points of attention

Important · 6
No external modifications to the existing building are permitted to prevent delays in permitting processes.Important
Nitrogen standards require that the gas boiler is only installed once proven nitrogen savings have been realized elsewhere in the project.Important
Spatial constraints require an optimal 3D layout of the heat pump, gas boiler, and the buffer tank (≥ 26 m³) within the fixed dimensions.Important
Future-proofing is essential; the design must be modular for later expansion of the heat pump capacity and the storage capacity.Important
Noise and visual impact must be minimized due to the proximity of protected nature and residential areas.Important
Cooling installation must be accommodated in an outdoor space with a maximum dimension of 10 x 10 meters.Important

08Frequently asked questions

What are the technical specifications for the heating plant?
The plant must deliver a peak load of 2.7 MW via a hybrid solution with a heat pump and a gas boiler with LowNOx technology. The expected temperature setting is 75/40°C.
What capacity is available for the heat pump and the electrical connection?
The heat pump has a maximum output of 800 kW, with a technical possibility for expansion to 1.2 MW. An electrical connection of 2 MVA is available, of which 1.5 MW is contracted.
What are the requirements regarding the buffer installation?
A minimum buffer volume of 26 m³ is required within the building. If space and layout permit, a larger internal tank is encouraged to improve efficiency and operational stability.
How are nitrogen emission standards met?
The gas boiler may only be installed once nitrogen savings have been demonstrated elsewhere in the project. This places specific requirements on the project phasing and the technical integration of the installation.
Is there an opportunity to participate in an information meeting?
A joint partnering event will take place on February 20th, focused on upcoming tenders from four cooperative district heating networks in the Netherlands.
