Re-Witch creates the coolest cold from the cleanest heat
Re-Witch is a project, funded by EU’s research and innovation program Horizon Europe, with focus on using renewable energy and waste heat in industries to produce cooling and energy harvesting.
The overarching aim of project Re-Witch is to deliver cost-competitive, game-changing solutions in the field of sustainable industrial cooling and heating. To do so, Re-Witch will demonstrate advanced thermally-driven industrial cooling technologies based on ADsorption and ABsorption processes driven by an optimized mix of low-grade waste and renewable sources (innovative high vacuum flat plate solar collectors). Such solutions will be demonstrated in four demo sites encompassing the food and beverage sectors as well as industrial sectors where heat-to-cold solutions have not yet been widely explored (bio-refinery).
The activity will be completed by studying the replicability of proposed technologies in replication sites even integrated with District Heating Networks (DHN).
Partners in ten countries
The project will be delivered by an industrial-driven consortium of 26 partners from 10 countries and it is composed by some of the most innovative SMEs, Large Enterprises and R&D centers in the field of industrial renewable H&C leveraging experience from industrial and EU-funded projects (HYCOOL, SO-WHAT, Indus3Es).
IVL’s role is mainly to identify important factors for efficient contracts between relevant stakeholders and to develop business model concepts for the demo sites.
