How Bosch transformed the Eisenach plant into a pioneer in energy efficiency

Projects details:
Location: Eisenach, Germany
Year of Submission: 2023
Type of HP: Engie Quantum Water heat pump
Organisation: Bosch Building Technologies
Funding from: Private
Sector of application: Industrial

The Bosch Eisenach plant was previously exclusively heated with gas boilers and chillers. Heating and cooling were generated separately with large temperature differences between the heating and cooling networks. In the context of rising demand due to the construction of a new building, it was decided to decarbonize the heating supply by implementing compressed air waste heat reuse and a heat pump. This modernization has enabled the Bosch Eisenach plant to save 2,400 tons of CO2 emissions annually, reduce gas consumption by more than 90 percent, and cut energy costs by about 600,000 euros. As a result, the site’s heating and cooling generation is now almost CO2-free.
