block heating

From the Wikipedia entry for "Central solar heating" at the first reference link:

"Central solar heating is the provision of central heating and hot water from solar energy by a system in which the water is heated centrally by arrays of solar thermal collectors (central solar heating plants - CSHPs) and distributed through district heating pipe networks (or 'block heating' systems in the case of smaller installations)."

The sample sentence below is from a trade association at the second link.
Example sentence:

"District and block heating applications offers good conditions for the use of solar thermal for existing buildings and there are a number of demonstration plants with ground-mounted as well as roof-mounted collector arrays."
