When it comes to supplying heat and hot water to new residential complexes, existing residential complexes, or entire modernized urban centers, the emphasis is shifting from individual heating systems to local heating networks with heating substations. Furthermore, fossil fuels will play an increasingly smaller role in the future. The reasons for this are manifold. For example, traditional fuels such as fuel oil and natural gas are subject to greater price fluctuations than solid biomass or biogas.
Renewable energy solutions offer a variety of options for cost-effective housing retrofits that meet subsidy criteria and climate protection requirements. Technologies utilizing ambient energy and renewable biomass can be easily combined with additional fossil fuel-fired heat generators to create hybrid systems.
Heating with wood is CO₂ neutral. This means that only the amount of carbon dioxide absorbed by the tree during growth is emitted into the atmosphere. CO₂ cycle diagram: decomposition of dead wood (left), photosynthesis (center), combustion of wood fuel (right).
Based on current energy prices and considering the overall investment costs, a wood-burning heating system is a cost-effective alternative. Viessmann wood-burning boilers are highly efficient and fuel-efficient. They are suitable both as a sole heat generator and as a complement to oil or gas boilers. Installing a wood-burning boiler significantly reduces oil and gas costs, so the boiler pays for itself almost immediately. Ultimately, you'll be contributing to climate protection, as heating with wood is CO2-neutral . This means only the amount of carbon dioxide absorbed by the tree during its growth is emitted into the atmosphere.
Anyone investing in a new heating system today should design it to include a solar thermal system from the outset. This will allow you to benefit from reduced energy consumption and expect lower monthly electricity bills. By installing solar collectors, you demonstrate your commitment to protecting the environment by sustainably reducing CO2 emissions . By choosing Viessmann technology, you are opting for a future-proof system in which all components work together optimally. Investing in solar technology also increases the value of your property.
With the innovative ThermProtect automatic shut-off function, Viessmann offers long-term protection for its flat and tube collectors like no other.
With its innovative ThermProtect automatic shutdown feature, Viessmann offers long-term protection for its flat-plate and tubular collectors like no other. ThermProtect allows for large collector areas to be installed without having to consider stagnation during system design. Viessmann's technology automatically shuts down the collectors when a preset temperature limit is reached. Temperature-based shutdown operates completely independent of the collector system configuration, control unit settings, and installation position. Thermal loads on system components and the coolant are always maintained within acceptable limits. This increases the service life and operational reliability compared to conventional solar thermal systems.
Even when it comes to environmental compatibility, with Viessmann solar thermal systems, you'll be on the sunny side of the street: On average, a detached house alone produces three-quarters of a ton less carbon dioxide (CO₂) annually. Viessmann flat-plate and tube collectors are distinguished by high operational reliability and a long service life. Vitosol solar collectors are made of corrosion- and UV-resistant materials. This is impressively confirmed by quality testing in accordance with EN 12975 or ISO 9801. This also ensures a consistently high thermal output.
Heat pumps use renewable energy from the earth, the sun, groundwater, wastewater, or air. They reduce fossil fuel consumption, conserve valuable resources, and reduce CO2 emissions that harm the environment. Viessmann heat pumps offer additional benefits for users—many are equipped with active and natural cooling features. In addition to their classic use as heat generators on cold days, they can also create a pleasant indoor climate in the summer by delivering refreshing cool air into the home.

Viessmann's wide product range offers the right heat pump to meet any need. Structural and geological conditions, as well as personal and individual heating preferences, are considered from the design stage. Operating a heat pump using energy generated by an on-site photovoltaic system is particularly environmentally responsible and very affordable. Viessmann heat pumps can be used in new construction and renovation projects, operated in conjunction with solar thermal systems, and even combined with an existing oil or gas heating system to create a multi-mode system. This allows every building and property owner to realize their plans in the most efficient way.
