Implementing heating networks in Alt-Wiedikon/Binz (Project 2)

Avatar: Quartierverein Wiedikon Quartierverein Wiedikon

What should be created?
Greenhouse gas emissions from buildings account for 22.2% of total pollutant emissions. So it is worthwhile to implement climate-friendly measures there. Through local heating networks (drawing heat from a central station), numerous environmentally harmful heating systems of individual houses can be shut down or replaced. These local heating networks are to be fed primarily from municipal energy sources (schools, administrations, retirement and nursing homes, ERZ services) as well as from large private companies (e.g. in Binz: Swisscom, Swiss Life, Zurich Financial Services, Spross, Denner, Lidl) - in the form of waste heat or from large heating centres. We call for heating networks at three locations with these priorities: 1. Goldbrunnenstrasse from Berneggweg to Birmensdorferstrasse / 2. Austrasse from Steinstrasse to Uetlibergstrasse / 3. Uetlibergstrasse from Manesseplatz to Laubegg. All three locations are located within the project perimeter. Their implementation with the help of municipal experts and departments (clarification, project planning, planning) is likely to cost less than CHF 50,000 per area. We are convinced that MOST owners of affected properties react positively to such an offer to switch from climate-damaging to climate-friendly heating, because they also save costs in the long term. The supply costs would thus also be borne for the most part by private individuals.
