Energy concept with a future: geothermal energy and heat pumps in production

Industry:

Automobile

Solution:

QUANTUM heat pumps

With a combination of geothermal energy and QUANTUM heat pumps, ENGIE Refrigeration provides a future-proof solution for the production of the Mercedes-Benz plant in Rastatt.

  • Thanks to geothermal energy, heat pumps and the targeted use of waste heat, the environmentally friendly production of Mercedes Benz at the Rastatt plant is assured.

  • Two QUANTUM chillers as heat pumps generate a heat output of 1,807 kilowatts each under full load conditions.

 

On the way to a climate-neutral future, numerous companies are turning to environmentally friendly, renewable methods of energy generation. For its own production at the plant in Rastatt, Mercedes Benz relies on ENGIE Refrigeration's heating solution from geothermal energy and heat pumps. In addition to energy from geothermal energy, the company from the automotive industry uses waste heat from production processes for its daily operations.

Geothermal energy and heat pumps? The perfect team!

At the heart of the holistic concept for production from geothermal energy and heat pumps are two QUANTUM chillers, which are used as efficient heat pumps with a heat output of 1,807 kilowatts each under full load conditions. Thanks to the intelligent integration of geothermal energy and heat pumps in Mercedes Benz production, maximum efficiency and sustainability can be relied on around the clock.

Would you like to make your production environmentally friendly and future-proof with an energy concept based on geothermal energy and heat pumps? We would be happy to advise you on your project!

Alongside mounting and welding work, Paul Bippus GmbH also produces precision turned parts for breaking and steering systems, emission control systems and diesel fuel injection systems from materials which are difficult to cut. Due to ever-increasing demand for precision turned parts, this supplier to the automobile industry decided to build a new production site in Oberndorf in 2004. In this case, the technology for cooling the production processes proved to be a particular challenge for Bippus.
