In this paper certain issues concerning usage of nuclear power plants as sources of not only electric power but also thermal energy will be discussed. For such a solution appeals most of all the need to limit harmful emissions of gases (including CO2) and ashes, which come from the process of burning fossil fuels, as well as the raising demand for network heat and chill. Additionally combined heat and power production brings measurable economic benefits and increases energy security in a given region. In particular the possibility of exploiting a nuclear power plant (NPP) as a source of heat for the heating network system of an agglomeration and the most probable locations for this plant in Pomeranian Voivodeship will be considered. Both technical and economic aspects of such an undertaking will be taken into account.
