Supply options in individual buildings include gas and oil boilers, air- and ground-sourced heat pumps, resistive heaters, and solar thermal collectors.
Ground-source heat pumps are only allowed in rural areas because of space constraints. Thus, only air- source heat pumps are allowed in urban areas. This is a conservative assumption, since there are many possible sources of low-temperature heat that could be tapped in cities (e.g. waste water, ground water, or natural bodies of water). Costs, lifetimes and efficiencies for these technologies are retrieved from the `Technology-data repository <https://github.com/PyPSA/technology-data>`_.
Below are more detailed explanations for each heating supply component, all of which are modeled as `Links <https://pypsa.readthedocs.io/en/latest/components.html?highlight=distribution#link>`_. in PyPSA-Eue-Sec.

A thermal energy density of 46.8 kWhth/m3 is assumed, corresponding to a temperature difference of 40 K. The decay of thermal energy in the stores: 1-exp(-1/24τ) is assumed to have a time constant of  t=180 days for central TES and  t=3 days for individual TES, both modifiable through `tes_tau <https://github.com/PyPSA/pypsa-eur-sec/blob/3daff49c9999ba7ca7534df4e587e1d516044fc3/config.default.yaml#L229>`_ in Config file. Charging and discharging efficiencies are 90% due to pipe losses.

===================================
In addition to methane from fossil origins, the model also considers biogenic and synthetic sources. `The gas network can either be modeled, or it can be assumed that gas transport is not limited <https://github.com/PyPSA/pypsa-eur-sec/blob/3daff49c9999ba7ca7534df4e587e1d516044fc3/config.default.yaml#L261>`_. If gas infrastructure is regionally resolved, fossil gas can enter the system only at existing and planned LNG terminals, pipeline entry-points, and intra- European gas extraction sites, which are retrieved from the SciGRID Gas IGGIELGN dataset and the GEM Wiki.

The model can only use biogas by first upgrading it to natural gas quality [see :ref:`Methane supply`] (bio methane) which is fed into the general gas network.
