For heat pump manufacturers, the next frontier isn’t in the air or the ground - it’s in the pipes. As urban centers scramble to decarbonize, Sewer Heat Recovery is emerging...
Data centers are a part of our modern life, a necessary component of our current infrastructure space. One of the main reasons stated for opposition to its local development is that they use too much electricity and water...
Data centers use a lot of electricity and this electricity produces heat, which is of value to local communities if they are able to capture and reuse it.
By pairing energy-hungry data centers with the untapped thermal potential of sewer systems, we can reimagine urban heat systems, reduce emissions, and turn waste into utility.
This map shows the locations of 20 wastewater heat recycling projects in Germany which are currently in various stages of development...
MassDEP Announces Their Newest Program. The state of Massachusetts is promoting sewage thermal energy use (STEU), what they call Wastewater Energy Recovery (WWER). This is a pilot program offering incentives, in the form of grants...
As the world searches for more sustainable alternatives to improve energy efficiency, wastewater heat recovery has emerged as a promising technology. This process captures and repurposes the heat from wastewater, reducing energy consumption and lowering greenhouse gas emissions...
As cities seek sustainable and efficient energy solutions, one often-overlooked resource is wastewater. Utilizing sewage heat recovery for heating and/or cooling buildings is one of the most exciting opportunities available for cities...
As the world seeks innovative ways to reduce carbon emissions and improve energy efficiency, one often-overlooked resource is gaining attention - Sewer Thermal Energy. Wastewater, which constantly flows through sewer systems, holds an immense amount of thermal energy that can be harnessed to heat and cool buildings, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and lowering energy costs.
