This study aims to simplify the optimal utilisation of waste heat in industry
through the use of heat pumps. This will
increase energy efficiency, which will have a positive impact on meeting the targets agreed in the Paris Climate Agreement and on economic profitability. Companies are to be supported in the
preliminary planning for the sensible integration of heat pumps into existing processes
.
Finally, a practicable guide is provided for the initial assessment of
ecological and economic effects for the company through the integration
and utilisation of waste heat from cooling processes.
In addition, a meaningful estimate of potential energy and cost savings is to be made possible even with incomplete data. As the informative value of the calculations increases with improved data,
