Heat loss costs money every day.
We recover it—in a cost-effective and practical way.
Allwörden Bakery - Energy Plan & Construction Supervision – Mölln
Your Benefits
-
Prevent, reduce, and utilize waste heat instead of letting it go to waste
-
Measurably Reduce Energy Costs
-
Integrate grants strategically and secure investments
What Sets Us Apart
-
We learn about and understand your processes and identify where energy is being wasted. We develop inventory optimization strategies and solutions that work—both technically and economically.
-
We combine waste heat recovery with strategic heat planning. This is how individual measures come together to form a functioning system.
The result
-
You'll gain clarity – not just another report.
-
If it makes financial sense, it will be implemented. If it doesn't pay off, it's out.
-
No endless discussions. A clear basis for decision-making.
What are your costs?
The costs depend on the structure, facilities, and complexity.
You’ll know the cost before the project starts—clearly stated as a fixed price.
This is how we do things
-
Analysis of Your Energy and Heat Flows
-
Identification of Unused Waste Heat
-
Development of concrete solutions
-
Accurate Calculations of Cost-Effectiveness and Subsidies
-
Preparations for implementation Your effort: minimal. We'll guide you through the project.
And after that?
-
We remain responsible – From the first step to strategic heating planning.
What does that mean, specifically?
These are the questions that need to be addressed now:
In many companies, waste heat is discharged without being utilized—resulting in ongoing, unnecessary energy costs.
Through targeted waste heat recovery, this energy can be recovered and reused in operations—for example, in production, for heating, or for hot water.
The result: lower energy costs, fewer energy losses, and additional funding opportunities for businesses and industry.
The key factor is whether the use of the technology is technically feasible and economically viable. That is exactly what we clarify in advance.
No. And that is exactly what we are evaluating. A waste heat concept is only worthwhile if there is sufficient waste heat potential and if its utilization can be implemented in an economically viable manner.
Significant waste heat potential often arises in industry, commerce, and municipal operations—but not all of it can be utilized economically.
If it makes financial sense, we’ll work with you to make it happen.
If not, we won’t.
Partially. There is no direct obligation to use waste heat—but there are clear legal requirements for its collection and reporting.
Under the Energy Efficiency Act (EnEfG), companies with a total annual final energy consumption of more than 2.5 GWh (average over the last three years) are required to report waste heat.
The data must be submitted to the Federal Office of Energy Efficiency’s waste heat platform.
Overview of key requirements:
• Initial reporting: January 1, 2025
• Next deadline: March 31, 2026
• Regular updates required
• Waste heat potential from production processes must be reported
• Unused waste heat above defined de minimis thresholds is relevant
In practice, this means:
Waste heat does not necessarily have to be utilized—
—but it must be recorded, reported, and evaluated from an economic perspective.
Those who take a structured approach not only comply with legal requirements —but also unlock real economic potential for their own company.
Those who ignore it lose money—and strategic flexibility.
First, we analyze energy and heat flows within a company, a neighborhood, or a municipality. Based on this analysis, we identify untapped waste heat potential and evaluate it from both a technical and economic perspective.
In the next step, we develop concrete solutions—including funding opportunities and investment assessments. The result is a clear, reliable basis for decision-making:
Which measures make economic sense—and which do not.
