Tools to reduce the carbon impact of heat and cold production in industry

FriendSHIP Project

Training and expertise

Published on 07/11/2023

The FriendSHIP project is developing a solution to reduce the carbon impact of industrial heat and cold consumers.

INES Plateforme Evaluation & Formation, a partner in the Friendship project, has produced teaching aids (videos) on each of the technological building blocks implemented as part of the Friendship project.

Available for free access, these videos have been produced to help understand the different technologies developed in the context of the FRIENDSHIP project.
They are intended for industrialists, researchers and any team working at the heart of industrial processes, with the aim of reducing the carbon impact of heat and cold production.

Heat production

Understand how to produce heat using a hybrid solution combining solar thermal energy and a high-temperature heat pump to produce low-carbon heat up to 200°C.

Collaborating partners:

Solar collectors: Absolicon
High-temperature heat pump: SINTEF
Linear Fresnel Reflector : Industrial Solar

Heat storage

Understand how high-temperature heat storage works with phase-change materials. This thermal storage enables both solar heat and waste heat from industrial processes to be stored.

Consortium member working on Thermal Storage: CEA Liten
