In today’s dynamic economy, industrial enterprises — from manufacturing plants and warehouse facilities to large logistics centers — face the dual challenge of managing rising operational costs and meeting increasingly strict sustainability requirements. The price volatility of traditional energy sources and the pressure to reduce carbon footprints make energy efficiency a key factor for competitiveness.
Inspired by the successful experience of leading European companies, Geotron Engineering presents geothermal systems as a strategic solution that addresses these challenges, delivering a drastic reduction in costs and a reliable path toward a greener future.
European Experience: Industrial Giants Are Already Benefiting
Across Europe, companies from various sectors are integrating geothermal energy to optimize their operations. Leading names such as Audi, Volvo, and the chemical giant BASF are already using geothermal technologies for heating and cooling their production facilities. Examples also include the pharmaceutical campus of Janssen in Belgium and even breweries such as Vaporri di Birra in Italy.
These companies demonstrate that geothermal energy is not a niche technology but a proven, scalable solution that delivers real financial and environmental benefits. The European geothermal heating market is expanding rapidly, with investments expected to exceed $7 billion by 2030.
Key Advantages for Your Industrial Facility
The implementation of geothermal systems in industry offers comprehensive benefits that go beyond standard heating and cooling.
- A drastic reduction in operational costs. Geothermal systems achieve energy efficiencies of 300% to 500%. In practice, this means that for every 1 kWh of electricity used to operate the heat pump, the system delivers 3 to 5 kWh of thermal or cooling energy. This results in reducing heating bills by up to 70% and cooling costs by up to 40%. compared to conventional systems powered by gas, oil, or electricity.
- Stability and Independence from Price Shocks: Earth’s heat is a constant and free resource. Once installed, the system provides predictable and low operational costs for decades, shielding the business from the volatility of international energy markets.
- Durability and Minimal Maintenance The components of a geothermal system are highly reliable. The underground pipe loop (geothermal field) has a lifespan of over 50 years.while the heat pump equipment, installed indoors and protected from external factors, operates smoothly for over 20–25 years. This is twice the lifespan of traditional HVAC systems.
- Achieving Sustainability (ESG) Goals Geothermal systems offer zero carbon dioxide emissions on-site. Transitioning to geothermal energy is one of the most effective steps a company can take to reduce its carbon footprint and meet its corporate environmental and social responsibility goals.
- Application for Technological Processes In addition to building climate control, geothermal energy can also be used directly in manufacturing. Water with temperatures between 50°C and 100°C can be utilized for processes such as drying agricultural products or wood, heating greenhouses, and maintaining temperature in aquaculture farms. and other industrial applications that require low-temperature heat.
