The present invention relates to a method for realizing transparent 
heat supply and a 
system for realizing the method, specifically by deploying several temperature sensors, pressure sensors, flow sensors, heat meters, 
electricity meters,  Various sensors and instruments of 
natural gas meters; real-time measurement of 
water temperature T, pressure P, flow G, heat Q, 
power consumption W, and 
natural gas consumption N of various parts of the 
system; and then use the method of 
system identification to identify the key internal and external parameters of the system  , including but not limited to the resistance characteristic S of any segment of the 
pipe network, the 
building envelope KF, and the control characteristic KV of the equipment, so that the key internal and external characteristic parameters of the system are known and transparent to the system users in terms of time and space  ; and manage the operation of the 
heating system according to the set goals based on the known real-time parameters and the identified 
system characteristics.  The invention also relates to a 
heating system using the method, which includes a 
data acquisition module, a communication module, a central 
server, a system characteristic identification module and an operation management module.
