AFFALDVARME AARHUS CHANGES ITS NAME TO KREDSLØB

On March 1, 2022, AffaldVarme Aarhus changed its name to Kredsløb (which means cycles). A name that better reflects what the utility works with every day. Namely, to create the optimal circulation for energy and resources.

The hot water in the district heating runs in a perpetual cycle in more than 2,000 km of pipes under Aarhus. Sorting and recycling must ensure that resources are sent into circulation and used as many times as possible. Even the residual waste is sent into circulation when it is burned and heats water, which creates district heating and electricity for Aarhus.

The utility creates the most optimal circulation for energy and resources every day. In this way, the name Kredsløb reflects the values, strategy, and ambitions for the green transition.

It is no different from what the utility has been doing so far. But it puts the vision and task at the forefront and clarifies that the utility is here to make it easy to be green.
