Intelligent Network Integration

AEW

Yuon analyzed district heating networks for AEW Energie AG and identified significant optimization potential for reducing fossil fuel consumption, lowering heat losses, and increasing virtual network capacities. The focus lies on data-driven analysis, intelligent monitoring, and creating the foundation for more efficient and future-ready network operation. As a first step, a central interface solution is being implemented to enable additional thermal networks with high optimization potential to be rapidly connected and optimized afterwards.

Heating Network Herrenschwanden

More transparency and control in network operation

Yuon optimizes the Herrenschwanden heating network through centralized remote access, continuous monitoring, and digital supervision of the energy centre and substations. Operational data, heat meters, and control components are continuously monitored and analysed, enabling early detection of issues and more efficient system operation. The project demonstrates how medium-sized district heating networks can be operated more transparently, flexibly, and efficiently through digital operational management.

Operational Optimization in Zurich

Intelligent Control System Reduces Peak Loads

In Zurich’s Hofwiesenstrasse district, Energie 360°, Yuon Control, and Hoval successfully optimized a local district heating network. By combining Hoval control technology with Yuon’s predictive control system, peak loads were reduced by 33%. In addition, energy consumption and CO₂ emissions decreased significantly. The project demonstrates how existing heating networks can be operated more efficiently, cost-effectively, and sustainably through digital control – a scalable model for the energy transition.

Digital analysis as a foundation for future network expansion

Yuon analyzed the Münsingen North district heating network using digital models and operational data from the energy center, network and substations. The analysis identified optimization potential in temperature control, storage management and network operation, creating the foundation for a more efficient and future-ready expansion of the heating network. At the same time, valuable insights were developed for modern data-driven operation and future optimization strategies.

Konolfingen heating network

Commissioning July 2024

Yuon supplied Anken Energietechnik with the software and control systems for a total of 26 houses in Konolfingen (BE) and has been optimizing the heating system since July 2024. Thanks to the predictive and intelligent software, the municipality operates its heating networks more efficiently, saves operating costs and reduces CO2 emissions.

Raphael Anken

Managing Director Anken Energietechnik GmbH

With Yuon’s intelligent control technology, including wired intelligent temperature sensors, the current heat demand can be recorded and regulated at any time. Intelligent load management smoothes out costly peak loads, which significantly reduces operating costs.

Herrenschwanden heating network

Commissioning October 2023

In a project together with Allotherm, Yuon supplied the software and control systems for the individual households and the entire district heating network in Landiswil (BE) and has been optimizing operations there since the start of the 2023/24 heating period.

Christian Bieri

Managing Director of Allotherm AG

“Thanks to Yuon’s predictive, self-optimizing heating control system, we have already been able to intelligently equip several district heating networks and thus save energy, costs and CO2 emissions.”

IWB Nanoverbund

Commissioning April 2024

Our know-how in the areas of smart heating control and modeling of thermal properties can be widely used to reduce energy demand and heating costs. Yuon is IWB’s implementation partner for the Nanoverbund, which has been available since April 2024.

Dominik Born

Innovation Manager IWB AG

IWB has developed the “IWB Nanoverbund” together with Yuon. The Yuon control software ensures that the energy is distributed intelligently between the houses. The collaboration with Yuon is pleasant and uncomplicated
