Euroheat & Power Summit 2026: Think bigger, electrify better

Euroheat & Power Summit 2026 In July 2026, the European Commission unveiled its “Electrification Action Plan”, a strategy aimed at making the European Union the “first electro-continent”. It is no coincidence that it calls for scaling up district heating and cooling networks. The key to successful electrification lies in going beyond individual solutions, tapping into the huge benefits of system-wide infrastructures to: • Electrify heating and cooling through large heat pumps, e-boilers and thermal storage • Increase energy efficiency through waste heat recovery • Replace fossil fuels with abundant local renewable heat sources • Make the EU energy system more resilient, flexible and secure In other words, we need to think bigger to electrify better! The message is clear, and the path is set: district heating and cooling should supply 15% of the EU’s heat demand by 2030, and waste heat alone should supply 11% of the heat demand by 2050. Now, how do we get there? What to expect? • Executive interviews with high-level EU policymakers • Inspiring keynotes by energy thought leaders • Engaging exchanges on the upcoming EU Waste heat initiative, Cooling and heating action plan, post-2030 framework and ETS revision • Friendly networking with 200+ peers from the sector • An iconic After-Work: “Winter is coming!” About the Summit: The Euroheat & Power Summit is Euroheat & Power’s high-level, not-to-be-missed policy event, offering key insights into EU legislation and emerging trends shaping Europe’s heating and cooling sector.
