Poland and Germany build heating system together.
A new heating system is being built in Görlitz, Germany. It connects to Zgorzelec, Poland. The system uses renewable energy.
The project, called United Heat, is a collaboration between Poland and Germany. It will use biomass, solar collectors, and heat pumps to create heat. The goal is to lower carbon emissions by 50,000 tonnes each year. This is seen as a good example of working together. The system crosses the border between the two countries.
