Equipping 200 radiators with Danfoss Ally™ Radiator Thermostats and integrating them into the Ambiant building management system via the Zigbee standard.
Implementing smart heating in a single family house in Ballan-Miré, France. The house owners, who are passionate about home automation, wanted to control different environments, including heating, which has a significant role in energy consumption. The project consisted of fitting the 13 radiators with Danfoss Ally™ Radiator Thermostats and connecting them to a JEEDOM gateway.

Centrally heated apartment buildings often suffer from variations in room temperatures due to inefficient and unbalanced heating systems. This can lead to unhappy residents complaining about lack of comfort or high energy bills. Swedish cooperative organization HSB aimed to use an intelligent monitoring and control solution to improve the energy efficiency and indoor comfort of a 12-apartment block that is connected to district heating.
This paper addresses the decarbonization of heating from an integrated energy system perspective, building the bridge between the demand and supply side of energy and decentralized as well as centralized solutions such as heat pumps and district energy grids.
In this whitepaper we will present the key challenges district energy utilities face in designing resilient infrastructures— and the solutions that exist to start the green transformation today.
In a net-zero scenario, it is not only the sources of energy that must change; so too must the ways that energy is deployed, converted, stored, used, and reused. This paper builds a new narrative around energy efficiency, showing how electrification, demandside flexibility, conversion, storage, and sector integration must take center stage in a future energy system enabling an energy grid powered by renewables.
When utilizing low-temperature district heating it becomes important to achieve good control at the consumer side to meet the required cooling of the supply. The low supply temperature as such is not a big concern for thermostatic radiator controls. When it comes to the domestic hot water the low supply temperature can cause challenges when it comes to Legionella growth.
A resilient building requires lower costs for total energy while providing greater comfort and higher indoor air quality.
Heating and cooling our buildings accounts for about 30-50% of the final energy consumption in the EU, with over 70% being generated from fossil fuels (source: eurostat). The optimization of heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems in buildings requires more than simply improving the efficiency of the equipment (e.g. heat pumps, boilers, chillers). It is also vital to look at how heating and cooling is distributed from the central generator towards end use.
This whitepaper is intended to support HVAC professionals with creating reliable and energy efficient hydronic control solutions for Air Handling Unit (AHU) systems as used in a wide variety of commercial, institutional and multi-purpose buildings.
this document focuses on key drivers and potential pathways to a carbon neutral future for residential heating in both the new build and renovation sectors.
