District Heating and Energy Efficiency in Chile: An Example of Project Bundling in Practice
Episode 10
Wednesday, 1 November, 2023

Problem: Chile is pursuing plans and investment strategies to implement district energy systems in cities and regions across the country. The overall aim of the initiative is to improve well-being in urban communities currently dealing with severe air pollution, as well as to fulfil part of the country’s commitment to the Paris Agreement by decarbonizing heating.Key message: Replacing outdated and unhealthy heating systems with district energy simultaneously tackles local public health concerns and global carbon emissions reductions, yet various practical barriers to doing so require a new approach to designing and financing project investments. This podcast discusses the application of UNEP-CCC’s investment bundling methodology to enable a demand-side shift in clean and low-carbon energy systems.Speakers: Vanja Elizabeth Wylie, Javier Piedra FierroSupport: Aristeidis Tsakirishttps://c2e2.unepccc.org/kms_object/district-heating-and-energy-efficiency-in-chile-an-example-of-project-bundling-in-practice-podcast/
