Vinci Construction
Nanterre
Celsius Energy, a specialist in surface geothermal heating and cooling solutions, has partnered with Vinci Construction to launch an energy renovation package in Nanterre, France. The Celsius Energy System aims to significantly reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in buildings. By integrating geo-energy and thermal insulation, it promises up to 93% reduction in energy use and a 90% decrease in carbon footprint. This innovative solution addresses major energy sector challenges, enhancing building efficiency and sustainability.
This technology can reduce a building's energy consumption by up to 93% and its greenhouse gas emissions by 90%. Such an impact is particularly significant in France, where the building sector consumes 700 TWh annually—equivalent to twice the capacity of the nuclear energy fleet—and accounts for nearly a quarter of the country's CO2 emissions.
Celsius Energy is a ground source heat pump that consists of three main elements: A geothermal energy exchange system, a heat pump and a digital control system. This setup can heat and cool buildings while eliminating 90% of CO₂ emissions per kWh generated compared to the benchmark solution (gas and chillers) and can reduce a building’s energy consumption by 60% and operating costs by 40%. The small surface footprint of this solution - made possible through star-shaped drilling - means that it works for both new buildings and renovations, even those located in dense urban areas. This solution offers low-carbon heating and cooling for year-round comfort and can also simultaneously supply hot and cold. Celsius Energy supports companies from the design phase to the implementation of your system. A digital plug-and-play interface enables real-time management of the system's energy consumption and performance. As the planet warms up, demand for air conditioning is increasing and Celsius aims to meet this need with a cost-effective, sustainable, and simple solution.
