Combined Heat pump And thermal Storage for Energy efficient industry
About CHASE4HEAT
CHASE aims at developing combined high temperature heat pump and latent thermal energy storage
systems to enable industrial processes using sustainable electricity from intermittent sources.
IMPACT
The CHASE project has the potential to significantly reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas
emissions in the industrial sector, contributing decisively to the EU’s climate neutrality goals by 2050.
CHASE aim and objectives
The aim of the CHASE project is therefore: to enable efficient integration of renewables providing heating of
industrial processes by combining HTHP and LHTES at a relevant industrial scale.
Expectations
CHASE aims to increase energy efficiency and reduce emissions in process industries by optimizing
thermal energy flows. The 100 kW installations implemented during the project period will be scaled to at
least 1 MW in a follow-up project that will be implemented as a demonstrator in industry.
