How Paris Plans to Make the Seine Swimmable by 2024 - Bloomberg

How Paris Plans to Make the Seine Swimmable by 2024 - Bloomberg | Energy Transition in Europe | www.energy-cities.eu | Scoop.it

A new project launched in Paris might help the city finally achieve a long-held but elusive goal: making the River Seine clean enough to swim in.

Now, however, the city has a plan that might be able to curb pollution more permanently, making it swimmable — and usable as a competition venue — in time for the 2024 Summer Olympics.

ReUseHeat quantified EU28 urban waste heat potential

ReUseHeat quantified EU28 urban waste heat potential | Energy Transition in Europe | www.energy-cities.eu | Scoop.it
The ReUseHeat report "Accessible Urban Waste Heat" shows a significant heat recovery potential from unconventional excess heat sources. Approximately 1.2 EJ (or 340 TWh) per year are possible to recover from data centres, metro stations, service sector buildings, and waste water treatment plants. This corresponds to more than 10 percent of the EU's total energy demand for heat and hot water, which is approximately 10.7 EJ (or 2,980 TWh).
