| district heating The supply of heat, either in the form of steam or hot water, from a central source to a group of buildings | urrutiko berokuntza |
| district heating The supply of heat, either in the form of steam or hot water, from a central source to a group of buildings | auzo-berokuntza |
| district heating plant Plant for heating all houses in a district; it consists of a large, efficient, centralized boiler plant or "waste" steam from a power station. The heat is distributed by means of low-pressure steam or high-temperature water to the consumers | urrutiko berokuntzako instalazio |
| heat and power station Power station which produces both electricity and hot water for the local population. A CHP (Combined Heat and Power Station) plant may operate on almost any fuel, including refuse | baterako sorkuntzako zentral |
| heat pump A device which transfers heat from a cooler reservoir to a hotter one, expending mechanical energy in the process, especially when the main purpose is to heat the hot reservoir rather than refrigerate the cold one | bero-ponpa |
| heat storage Keeping heat created during a period of low consumption until a peak period when it is needed | bero-metatze |
| heat supply The provision of heating fuel, coal or other heating source materials, or the amount of heating capacity, for the use of a municipality, or other heat user | bero-hornikuntza |
| heating plant Plant for producing and supplying heat | berokuntza-instalazio |
| local heat supply The provision of heating fuel, coal or other heating source materials, or the amount of heating capacity, for the use of a specific local community | bero-hornikuntza lokal |
| municipal heating network System of heating all houses in a urban district from a central source (as from hot springs in Iceland or by cooling water from a power station) | udaleko berokuntza-sare |
| power-heat relation The ratio of the work done by an engine to the heat supplied | energia-bero erlazio |
| solar heating A domestic or industrial heating system that makes direct use of solar energy. The simplest form consists of a collector through which a fluid is pumped. The circuit also contains some form of heat storage tank and an alternative energy source to provide energy when the sun is not shining. The collector usually consists of a black surface through which water is piped, the black surface being enclosed behind glass sheets to make use of the greenhouse effect | eguzki-berokuntza |
| waste heat Heat derived from the cooling process of electric power generating plants and which can cause thermal pollution of water courses, promoting algal bloom | hondar-bero |
| waste heat charge The release of heat generated as a byproduct from industrial or power generation processes | hondar-beroaren karga |
| waste heat utilisation Waste heat applications include space heating and refrigeration in urban areas, thawing of ice-bound seaways, agricultural use to stimulate growth and to extend the growing season and in aquaculture to stimulate the growth of algae, shellfish, and other potential marine food sources | hondar-beroaren erabilera |
| waste-fed heating plant Heating plant where fuel is provided from refuse | hondakinez elikatutako berokuntza-instalazio |
