Summary
The EMASOL solar thermal plant is the first in France to use solar trackers on a district heating network. By following the sun’s path throughout the day, it maximizes renewable heat production for the city of Pons. EMASOL supplies heating and domestic hot water to around ten public buildings in the city and guarantees renewable, local, and competitive heat for a maximum number of users.
Newheat's proposal to install solar thermal heat instead of gas was an undeniable advantage both in terms of costs and in terms of decarbonizing our energies
