Hamburg’s industrial waste heat project: a model for climate-neutral district heating?
In Hamburg, a pioneering energy project is showing how cities can become climate neutral by capturing heat that would otherwise go to waste.
By using waste heat from copper production, the city now supplies clean heat to its district heating system.
Could this be a model other cities follow?

How waste heat from Hamburg’s copper smelter is warming the city but not the planet

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is facing intense criticism after allegedly caving to Donald Trump’s aggressive trade demands out of fear that the U.S. might slash military support to Ukraine or withdraw troops from Europe. According to the Sunday Times, von der Leyen accepted a harsh 15% tariff on most EU exports during a visit to Trump’s golf course in Scotland—scrapping a counter-tariff plan her officials had prepared.
Brussels also pledged $600 billion in U.S. investments and $750 billion in American energy purchases. Leaders like Macron and Orban slammed the deal, with the latter claiming Trump “ate her for breakfast.” Backlash is growing in the EU, where von der Leyen faces rebellion over military spending, vaccine scandals, and dwindling parliamentary support. With Trump’s “posture review” looming, the EU’s strategic future hangs in the balance. Critics say this may be von der Leyen’s final chance to recover politically.
