The Hotmaps project assessesed the potential use of the toolbox for national strategic heat planning.
We have just published a new paper assessing the Hotmaps tool design and its properties for application in national strategic heat planning. As part of this evaluation, the tool design is compared with the EnergyPLAN tool which has been applied for the Heat Roadmap Europe studies, among others. The purpose of this comparison is to achieve a better understanding of both tools and achieve a better understanding of the role of Hotmaps tools in national strategic heat planning processes.
