Don’t Let Heat Go to Waste: Unlock the Power of Sector Coupling
Excess heat doesn’t have to be a lost opportunity. Danfoss’s new Sector Coupling Leaflet highlights a transformative approach to energy management, where repurposing waste heat can significantly reduce costs, lower emissions, and maximise efficiency across systems.
What is Sector Coupling?
Sector coupling—also known as sector integration—combines supply and demand systems like heating and cooling, enabling excess energy from one process to power another. This strategy not only enhances system efficiency but also integrates renewable energy sources like wind and solar, making it pivotal for a greener, more resilient energy infrastructure.
The Benefits of Sector Coupling Include:
Enhanced heat recovery efficiency to make the most of your energy resources.
Over 500% efficiency improvement compared to fossil fuel systems.
Accelerated decarbonisation retrofits for a faster, greener transformation.
Cost reductions of over 50% versus designs that don’t recover energy.
Greater reliability and system resilience, stabilising energy supply while addressing the intermittency of renewables.
From supermarkets and data centres to district energy networks and industrial facilities, sector coupling is a cost-effective, environmentally friendly solution that delivers results.
Why Danfoss?
With a proven track record in heat recovery and high-efficiency solutions, Danfoss is the trusted partner for businesses ready to embrace integrated energy systems. From capturing industrial waste heat to elevating it for urban use via district energy networks, Danfoss technologies, like the Heat Recovery Station when used in conjunction with oil-free water-water heat pumps, are driving efficiency and sustainability worldwide.
Real-World Impact
In Ringsted, Denmark, a heat recovery system powers 7,000 homes with 97% fossil-free heating, boosting efficiency by 21%.
In Sønderborg, a hospital reduced energy consumption by 12,500 MWh and supplies 15,800 MWh of excess heat to nearby homes annually.
