Industrial heat: An emission free energy source

There is 20-50% of the energy consumed by US industry is ultimately lost as heat. Many facilities around the world can increase their overall effciency and bottom lines by installing waste heat recovery technologies. Waste heat recovery can enhance pro?tability in the industrial sector and improve competitiveness. One of the?rst steps in initiating a heat recovery project is understanding the quality and quantity of heat available. HeatCalc, we are doing for waste heat what the solar industry has done for calculating home solar output: automating estimates, maximizing knowledge sharing, and streamlining connections to the most relevant solution providers Our goal is to enable more waste heat utilization projects, which make the most out of energy we are already consuming. There are CHP (combined heat and power) projects delivering electricity and heat to hospitals, campuses, and industrial facilities that use waste heat to power projects that use the energy we already consume. We hope you can save time and money in the process.
