“…The schematic diagram of a DHS is included in Figure 2. 46 In the primary circuit, hot water passes to the DH substation through a primary distribution network and then returns to the heat source. In the secondary circuit, water receives heat from the hot fluid in the primary circuit through HXs, and then the heat transfers from water to rooms through radiators.…”

Summary This article provides an extensive survey on the modelling and optimisation of district heating systems (DHSs) focused on the heat distribution network. For this purpose, the major components of a DHS have been described and discussed, and their modelling has been briefly reviewed, including numerical simulation models for heat sources, end‐users, and especially the distribution network. The main deterministic and heuristic optimisation techniques are briefly described. Additionally, a single‐objective and multiobjective optimisation problem is generally formulated, and the main optimisation criteria for the design and operation of the distribution network are synthesised and analysed. The state of the art in DHS optimisation has been also reviewed and categorised. Finally, some recommendations for future developments were included.

“…DH enables the use of a variety of heat sources that are often wasted, as well as the renewable heat [4,15]. Many researchers have focused their field of studies to investigate methods and advantages of reusing the waste energy, RE utilization, modelling of DH systems and components [8,[16][17][18][19][20][21]. DH systems can significantly contribute achieving the goals of EU's energy policy in perspective of 2050 [22].…”

There is a considerable diversity of district heating (DH) technologies, components and interaction in EU countries. The trends and developments of DH are investigated in this paper. Research of four areas related to DH systems and their interaction with: fossil fuels, renewable energy (RE) sources, energy efficiency of the systems and the impact on the environment and the human health are described in the following content. The key conclusion obtained from this review is that the DH development requires more flexible energy systems with building automations, more significant contribution of RE sources, more dynamic prosumers' participation, and integration with mix fuel energy systems, as part of smart energy sustainable systems in smart cities. These are the main issues that Europe has to address in order to establish sustainable DH systems across its countries.
