Génie climatique
Les villes jouent un rôle capital dans la lutte contre la crise climatique. Elles consomment plus des deux tiers de l'énergie mondiale, notamment pour le chauffage et le refroidissement : cela fait de l'amélioration de l'efficacité énergétique un levier primordial. Alfa Laval a près d'un siècle d'expérience dans le transfert et la récupération de chaleur et vise la neutralité carbone d'ici 2030. Collaborons pour construire un avenir durable : ensemble, nous pouvons décarboner le monde.
La clé des villes durables
- Des systèmes énergétiques flexibles, robustes et efficaces pour alterner différentes sources d'énergie sans aucun réglage.
- Des sources d'énergie non fossiles qui permettent de réduire l'empreinte CO2.
- Des bâtiments économes en chaleur avec une empreinte carbone réduite qui économisent de l'énergie tout en répondant aux besoins de leurs occupants.
- La certification AHRI pour assurer la conception et les performances des échangeurs de chaleur dans tout le process énergétique.
Efficacité énergétique pour alimenter les objectifs climatiques net zéro
Même si les villes n'occupent aujourd'hui que 3 % des terres émergées, elles représentent les deux tiers de la consommation énergétique mondiale et 70 % des émissions de CO2. C'est pourquoi cultiver des villes économes en énergie est capital pour décarboner l'avenir et créer un monde durable.
Le chauffage et la climatisation comptent parmi les dépenses énergétiques les plus importantes d'une ville, mais sont pourtant des besoins de base pour tous les individus. Étant donné que la majeure partie de l'énergie utilisée pour le chauffage et le refroidissement aujourd'hui est produite à partir de combustibles fossiles, ce secteur nécessite une action urgente.
Avec près d'un siècle d'expérience dans l'efficacité et la récupération thermique, Alfa Laval a déjà les solutions. Nos échangeurs de chaleur à plaques compacts à économie d'énergie peuvent puiser dans diverses sources d'énergie, y compris les énergies renouvelables et recyclables, pour fournir un chauffage et un refroidissement économiques, économes en énergie et confortables. Nous visons la neutralité carbone d'ici 2030. Laissez-nous être votre partenaire en matière d'efficacité énergétique et de transition énergétique propre.
