Renewable energy
Biomass
Biomass can be used to produce heat, electricity, or biofuels.
The biomass or wood-fired boiler room includes the entire process from wood storage and handling to combustion in a hearth-boiler unit, enabling energy production as well as the treatment of effluents (ashes and gas emissions).
The recognized expertise of our engineering firm in design and implementation guarantees the performance of your installation.
Solar
Solar energy is the quintessential renewable energy, capable of meeting all needs in the form of heat through the use of solar thermal panels or electricity generation via photovoltaic solar panels.
The seasonal and daily variability in the availability of this resource requires an in-depth study of the utilization method in order to optimize its use while ensuring proper long-term operation.
The thorough expertise and experience of our teams in this field ensure the smooth operation of your project.
Geothermal energy
Geothermal energy aims to harness the natural heat from the subsoil.
Various capture techniques make it possible to harness this renewable heat for heating systems and/or industrial processes.
The potential for utilization varies depending on the nature of the subsoil and the depth of the resource.
In collaboration with expert geologists, our teams support your project by analyzing the alignment of needs with the available resource, enabling the definition of the appropriate technical solution.
Decarbonization
District heating network
The district heating network enables the distribution of thermal energy from a centralized production point to consumers.
The district heating network thus serves as an ideal means of harnessing renewable and/or recovered energy sources.
Our teams support district heating network projects on technical, administrative, economic, and legal aspects.
Waste heat
Waste heat from industrial processes or energy production represents a real opportunity both as a substitute for fossil fuels and as an energy source at competitive prices.
Our teams study and design installations for recovering waste heat from: engines, chilled water units, compressors, greywater, or any other exothermic process.
Electrification
In response to decarbonization challenges, replacing fossil fuel-based processes with electrification is a multifunctional decarbonization solution (Joule effect, mechanical power, infrared, etc.).
Beyond being a decarbonization solution, the use of electric energy often improves the energy efficiency of processes.
Technologies
Industrial utilities
Industrial utilities are energy fluids or services necessary for the proper functioning of industrial processes. This includes electricity, steam, compressed air, hot water, chilled water, and other essential fluids.
These utilities are crucial for powering equipment and maintaining the operational efficiency of industrial processes.
All our teams at our engineering firm, Exoceth, work on optimizing the production and distribution of these utilities.
HVAC Fluids / Low and High Voltage Electricity (CFO-CFA)
Exoceth designs HVAC (heating – ventilation – air conditioning) systems for your buildings, whether residential, tertiary, or industrial. Ensuring indoor conditions (temperature, humidity) as well as system efficiency guides our design choices.
Electricity, both high voltage (power distribution, lighting, etc.) and low voltage (control/command, IT, fire safety, etc.), is handled by our teams for a variety of applications (tertiary buildings, healthcare facilities, industrial processes, etc.).
Systems
All our teams offer solutions tailored to each project.
Our recommendations focus either on improving existing systems or on equipment replacement (heat pumps, boilers, air handling units, etc.) to achieve better energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact.
The analysis and experience of our experts ensure the success of your construction and/or renovation projects.
Buildings
Building thermal performance
Hygrothermal comfort, both in summer and winter, in new constructions as well as renovated buildings, is the main challenge in successfully improving energy efficiency in the building sector.
The analysis and experience of our experts guarantee the success of your construction and/or renovation projects.
Our approaches and simulations ensure optimal conditions for usage.
Building Information Modeling (BIM)
BIM and 3D CAD (Computer-Aided Design) now enable our design teams to anticipate execution and operational constraints using digital models.
This tool, used from the initial sketch for new projects or 3D scanning for existing ones, is a valuable aid for equipment integration and graphical representation of the project.
The added value of this working method lies in improving projects from the design phase through to construction and operation of the facilities.
Centralized Technical Management (CTM)
From the design phase, our projects incorporate centralized management systems with supervision tools that facilitate the easy operation of installations.
Our standards require functional analysis from the design stage to define the operating modes of the installations designed by our engineers.
Automation technologies, supervision software, and modern communication protocols enable the integration of all necessary intelligence for the optimal functioning and optimization of installations.
