Political Factors- Local governments are uniquely positioned to advance district energy systems in various capacities, there is a need for waste heat recovery solutions. Many cities are aiming to integrate publicly or privately owned waste heat through heat tariffs that reflect the cost of connection and the backup system to guarantee supply.

Economical Factors- The infrastructure required for district heating pipes includes heat generation unit which consists of boiler which is being fueled by gas, wood chips, oil, etc.; along with a distribution network of well-insulated pipes that is used for transferring heat to the end user sector and other equipment’s such as heat meters and heat exchanger cost a lot which restraint the market’s growth. The complete establishment of district heating systems requires a huge investment which hampers the growth of the market.

Social Factor- The district heating market faces limitations in regions such as Finland. For instance, Finnish Energy, the trade association for Finnish energy industry sector, is striving to solve issues in the ongoing academic & political debate about third party access (TPA) and opening the district heating networks to competition. Thus, market stakeholders are gaining cognizance about potential policy proposals such as the freedom to choose among various heating methods and possible legal barriers that restrict the development of the service business.

Technological Factors- District heating systems use a certain kind of fuel to generate heat energy. However, new technologies utilized by district heating systems can simultaneously employ multiple sources of fuel for energy generation. The fuel sources include natural gas, oil, biogas, solar, biomass, and wind energy. These sources can be used as per availability, cost, and efficiency factor attached to them at that particular time period. Simultaneous use of different fuels can reduce the cost and fuel risks prevalent in certain regions. These new hybrid systems can be utilized as new schemes or can also be refurbished and optimized in existing district heating pipes.

Environmental Factors- District heating pipes distribute heat for domestic hot water and space heating in buildings, commercial complexes, and industrial processes. Numerous cities are implementing low-carbon district heating solutions; however, a major portion of global district heat production still relies on fossil fuels. Renewable energy sources could soon play a major role in the district heating pipes market. According to the International Energy Agency, in the Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Scenario, the combined share of renewable sources and electricity in global district heat supplies is expected to be around 35%, helping to slash heat generation carbon emissions by more than one-third.

Legal Factors- Several countries and regions support and provides legal stability and safety to the global district heating pipes. While it is desirable a sectorial normative for district heating, in many cases it is not developed and systems are regulated by local authorities with environmental and urbanistic competences. For the case under analysis, biomass forestry, the legal subsystem should interact with the mountain manager for assuring supply and maintenance. However, this interaction is not always possible because forestry use and biomass recollection/exploitation are adjudicated by economic auction without linking both actors.
