![[CANCEL] International Symposium of 4th Generation District Heating and Smart Energy](https://www.isep.or.jp/en/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/200313_4DH.png)
* We have decided to postpone coming this conference on 13th March due to Coronavirus epidemic. We do not fix when it will be held in so far (25th February,2020).
Following the Paris Agreement, transformation to 100% renewable energy in the heat and cooling sector is beginning to progress worldwide. Denmark and other European countries have introduced district heating systems for the smart use of energy.
In this international symposium, we will learn about initiatives for the 4th generation district heating and smart energy in Europe and the European heat roadmap. We will share the latest trends in decarbonization of local energy, initiatives on local decarbonization (zero carbon city) in Japan.
