Hybrid heating
Heating doesn’t have to be rocket science. By using two or more heat sources — such as district heating and geothermal heat — you get to use the best of both worlds and save money.
HögforsGST’s HybridHEAT is a common-sense heating solution suitable for both new and old buildings.
Hybrid heating in a nutshell
Hybrid heating combines two or more heating sources. The most popular combinations are district heating and geothermal heating or district heating and exhaust air heat recovery.
With a smart control system, hybrid heating allows you to leverage the best aspects of district heating and other heat sources. For instance, the system can automatically alter between the heat pump and district heating based on electricity prices. This way, you’ll always use the cheapest heat source available.
Double the heating benefits, up to 50% cheaper heating
HybridHEAT is our common-sense heating solution. You get the benefits of two or more heating sources – including savings in heating expenses – without the large investments. Hybrid heating is suited for terraced houses and apartment buildings as well as industrial, commercial, and public buildings. Make a wise energy choice and choose hybrid heating!
As Oy Yliopistonkatu 12 in Turku saves 23 000€ per year with hybrid heating. The system paid for itself in seven years, and has been debt-free since December 2023.
Benefits of different heat sources
- District heating: Fixed price and almost 100% security of supply throughout the year. Leverage district heating when electricity is expensive or when temperatures are extremely low.
- Geothermal heating: Eco-friendly and efficient way of heating your property. Covers most of your building’s yearly heating demand. Can be supplemented with district heating during peak demand hours.
- Exhaust air heat recovery: Capture the heat in the exhaust air and recycle it back to the heating system instead of wasting it.
With hybrid heating, you can save both money and energy.

HybridHEAT – save energy for other choices
Combine district heating with geothermal heating or heat recovery
You’ll likely weigh your energy choices between district heating and geothermal heating or another heat pump-based heat source.
Opt for a wise, cost-effective solution by choosing both.
Enjoy the benefits of geothermal heating without the large investment
When heating a property with geothermal heating, the system needs to be designed to fulfill the heating needs even during the coldest hours. This requires more heat pumps and geothermal wells, leading to significantly higher investment costs.
With hybrid heating, you can supplement the heat pump with district heating during peak hours. This will lower your investment costs and significantly improve your return on investment.
Smaller carbon footprint, greater savings
Energy used wisely means less energy wasted. This equates to a lower CO2 footprint for your property — and lower costs for you.
