This thesis is part of the MATKA - project. MATKA - project is designed to explore and develop tourism in urban structure and examine how the tourism industry integrates sustainable regional development. The aim of this study was to dimension eco-efficient district heating system for the new tourist village in Ylläs. Heat pumps, biomass and solar energy-based system were examined for source of energy for district heating system. The new tourist village is planned to use passive and low-energy technology. Scenarios 1 and 2 with different district heating system extensions were constructed. Scenarios, however, proved to be almost identical that all the calculations for heating energy demand were done by using scenario two. In addition...
