HEAT RECOVERY FROM INDUSTRIAL REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS
Reduce your energy costs by up to 50% through waste heat recoveryHEAT RECOVERY FROM INDUSTRIAL REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS
Reduce your energy costs by up to 50% through waste heat recovery
Why produce new energy when valuable energy is already available within your process?
Your refrigeration system generates heat every day that often goes unused. At the same time, energy is consumed elsewhere to generate heat. As your partner in the energy transition, Equans connects heat, cooling and energy flows into one high-performance energy system, enabling you to get more value from the same energy while reducing both your costs and CO₂ emissions.
Turn waste heat into a valuable energy source
Many industrial companies have hidden energy sources within their production processes. Yet large amounts of waste heat are lost because heating and cooling systems operate independently of each other.
We analyse your heat and cooling flows and develop an integrated energy system in which heat, cooling, storage and control work together seamlessly. Where required, we upgrade waste heat using heat pumps and reuse it within your process or elsewhere on your site.
For who?
For industrial companies looking to maximise the value of their energy. Optimise existing energy flows and convert waste heat into both a financial and sustainable advantage.
Manufacturing companies looking to reduce energy costs
Companies with cooling processes and simultaneous heating needs
Organisations aiming to reduce CO₂ emissions and energy consumption
Heat recovered from cooling systems can be reused within the same process or redistributed to other applications across the site.
OUR APPROACH
From energy loss to value creation
Practical solutions within an integrated approach
While others focus on individual technologies, we design and deliver integrated energy systems in which heating, cooling, storage and control work together to maximise efficiency.

Case study
Brewery De Halve Maan
When expanding its bottling facility, Brewery De Halve Maan was looking for a solution that went beyond cooling alone. Equans delivered an integrated heat recovery system that reuses waste heat for process heating and building heating, resulting in higher overall energy efficiency.

Frequently asked questions about Heat Recovery
Do you have questions about industrial heat recovery? We are ready to explain everything clearly and simply.
Can't find what you're looking for?
Heat recovery is the process of capturing heat that would otherwise be wasted in a production or refrigeration process and reusing it for a valuable purpose.
Not always, but technologies such as heat pumps can usually upgrade waste heat to a usable temperature level.
A heat and cooling analysis quickly identifies where energy is being lost and what optimisation opportunities are available.
This depends on the energy flows, energy prices and the technical situation. Equans develops a clear business case upfront.
Our solutions are designed with maximum attention to operational continuity and minimal impact on your processes.
Yes. Thermal storage systems allow heat to be stored and used later when demand arises.
These include heat pumps, heat recovery systems, heating and cooling networks, thermal storage and intelligent energy management systems.
Yes. By making better use of existing energy, your energy consumption decreases and CO₂ emissions are reduced.
