Goodman Fielder Hot Water Heat Pump

Goodman Fielder - Blenheim Road

Hot Water Heat Pump

$320,000 Net Annual Savings Identified & 467 kWh Per Annum Thermal Savings

Problem

DETA identified during an energy audit that a significant energy saving opportunity existed to recover waste heat from the refrigeration system to provide base heat for a Super High Temperature Heatpump.

Solution

DETA scoped the High Temperature Heat Pump system for the site. This involved undertaking a feasibility study for the site, and upon identifying that the project economics were attractive, DETA developed a business case within Goodman Fielder's internal requirements.

Outcome

Upon installation, the project will reduce energy costs by $320,000, as well as significant carbon emission reductions.
