Samenvatting

A lot of energy in the Port of Rotterdam is getting wasted by power plants or other petrochemical companies. This waste energy can be reused. The assignment of this feasibility study is how a technical design concept of an integrated district heating process is applicable in the Westland.
This thesis contains an inventory of the existing inventory of the areas Westland, Rotterdam and the port from in the past, nowadays, under construction and future visions, followed by the technical and economical aspects and at last an optimized business case.
This optimized business case exists out of two parts, namely:
- The primary network: this runs in the Port of Rotterdam and supplies a large amount of thermal energy with geothermal to the consumers in the Westland.
- Secondary network: this contains delivery areas with greenhouses and geothermal heat as suppliers and a city as a consumer;
The primary network can only be constructed, when the secondary network is profitable. The transition from the secondary network with the primary network is a difficult task. The greenhouses will convert from being only a supplier to being supplier as well as a consumer.
This business case has an estimate of 1.3 billion Euros with an accuracy of -20 to +40%. When the project is complete, then an estimated 300 million kg CO2 per year could be saved. The payback time of one delivery area in Westland will be around 14 to 20 years. The payback time of the primary network depends highly on the gas price. The payback time of the primary network will be 18 to 28 years with a natural gas price of 0.25 eurocent per m3 if everyone participates in this system.
