How does the SECTOR influence city
environment ?
The overall number of boiler units in the territory of Prague is slightly
decreasing, the most frequent among them being boilers delivering
0.2 to 5 MW. It is most often in this group that a boiler unit is
replaced by a heat exchanger (connected to the hot water pipeline
from Melník). The overall
consumption of fuels in these units between 1985 and
1997 shows a decreasing trend. There is a visible trend to
replace solid and liquid fuels by gaseous substances which accounted
for approximately 74 % of the total consumption in 1997. Detailed
information see in pressure
