EHI Webinar | The Future of Heating: Connected Homes, Flexible Energy

The large-scale deployment of smart heating is already becoming a reality. Today’s heating systems are evolving into connected, flexible assets that can adapt to users’ habits and energy demand, as well as weather conditions, while improving efficiency and empowering consumers. This webinar explores the broader context behind this evolution and highlights how smart heating has become a key instrument for Europe’s energy transition. As the energy system shifts from centralised generation to a more decentralised (and renewable-based) model, heating systems must play a more active role. During this session, EHI Policy Advisors Richard Masquelier and Matthieu Duc will examined the smart features available today, how heating systems are interconnected with consumers, grids and other household devices, and their contribution to system flexibility. Finally, the session addresses how the EU policy framework can support smart heating development.
