Since 2011, HOFOR has established more than 130 km of new district heating pipelines in cooperation with ISOPLUS and renovated several existing pipelines, for instance by converting the steam network into a water-based district heating network.

Complete and fast progressing solution

HOFOR entered into a framework agreement with ISOPLUS in order to ensure that the project objectives were achieved. It covers the entire process from planning and design to delivery and installation of the pipes and leak detection system. 

Laying pipes in the capital is a challenging job. Narrow streets and dense traffic allow little space, and the fitters often had to excavate to a depth of 5 m to install the pipes. Fast progress of the installation work was important for the traffic, the residents and the business life. The construction of the Copenhagen metro was one of the project stages which increased our focus on completing the excavation and installation work as early as possible. 

This is also the reason why our fitters did their utmost to speed up the installation work and developed customized branch solutions, which were often delivered on site the following day.
