The new heating plant built in Luolakallio in 2020 produces district heating and industrial steam. The heat generation capacity of the new plant is 10 megawatts, of which industrial steam accounts for about 3-4 megawatts. Industrial steam is utilized in the processes of the pet food factory located on the adjacent site, but the steam is also used in district heating because the network extends to the center of Lieto and the industrial area called Avanti.

In connection with the new plant, also about one kilometer of district heating network line was built. In addition to Vexve valves and Hydrox hydraulic actuators, the new iSENSE Opti and iSENSE Pulse smart monitoring solutions were delivered to the network project. The aim of these solutions is to optimize the operation of the network and to locate potential problem areas in the network.
