- Innomotics, ENECO and Johnson Controls successfully complete collaboration project
- Innomotics’ motors and drives help deliver 25-27 MW of sustainable heat from treated wastewater
- 30,000 tons of CO2 emissions reduced annually, heating 20,000 households
Innomotics, a globally leading provider of electric motors and large drive systems, has played a pivotal role in the realization of the largest heat pump system in the Netherlands. It is located at the municipal wastewater treatment plant in Utrecht. The system harnesses residual heat from 65 million liters of treated wastewater daily, generating 25-27 MW of heat.
This translates to 15% of the district heating demand in Utrecht and Nieuwegein or approx. 20,000 households in total. Thanks to Innomotics’ state-of-the-art motors and frequency drives, the project achieves unparalleled energy efficiency while saving 30,000 tons of CO2 annually. Innomotics supplied:
▪ 8 Perfect Harmony GH180 frequency drives
▪ 8 A-Compact Plus units, with one spare, providing optimal operational flexibility
