PROYECT TYPES

Energy Efficiency, we refer to the efficient management of energy used in buildings and industrial processes. Enerpal carries out projects of Eco-Energy Efficiency by analyzing energy consumption and proposing the most appropriate actions in each case, with the aim of improving energy efficiency by implementing efficient and environmental friendly solutions, thus generating economic savings to clients and reducing released pollutants emissions coming off from the buildings to the atmosphere.

District Heating is called the centralized heat generation that, through a system of distribution networks of thermal fluids, meets the heating and domestic hot sanitary water needs of the buildings in its surroundings which are connected to said network system. The heat distribution can also be used to supply energy to surrounding industrial processes.

One of the most important characteristics of these systems is the high efficiency of the heat distribution pipes, which allow the transport of thermal energy with minimum losses (less than 1°C per kilometer).

In addition, given heat networks present an increase in energy efficiency in the generation of thermal energy:

  • Equipped with energy efficient heat generation systems.
  • Used fuels are ecological and respectful towards the environment.
  • The use of resources of the environment (local forest resources, heat leftover from the nearby industry, etc …).
  • They improve the energy efficiency of the buildings and industrial processes connected to them, being able to reach an A+ energy rating.

There are also important environmental, social, labor and economic benefits that radically improve the areas and regions in which they are implemented.

Enerpal has the economic capacity, experience and business structure required for the development, design, construction, operation and maintenance of this type of infrastructures for heat generation and distribution.

Enerpal offers its clients plants designed to meet the needs of large buildings and industrial processes that register a high demand for thermal energy through an Energy Services Contract (ESCO contract mode). Where Enerpal is in charge of:

  • The dimensioning of the installation of thermal energy generation for the Heating System, Hot Water Sanitary or Industrial Process, studying the current consumption and proposing the most efficient and cost-effective solution, in turn improving the energy rating of the client.
  • The necessary investment to carry out the required adjustments in the thermal installations.
  • Comprehensive energy management (fuel purchase, operation & maintenance, breakdowns, permits and authorizations, etc …) of the thermal installations in order to generate required heat.

Biomass is a forest fuel that provides energy for thermal purposes, in a more sustainable, efficient and economical way than fossil fuels derived from petroleum. The conversion of forest waste is an important thermal energy resource.

The advantages, environmental, labor, economic and tax generated in the areas and regions in which they are used, make biomass for thermal use a relevant energy source to take into account for the development of Heating Systems, Hot Sanitary Water of buildings and industrial processes in general, also improving their energy efficiency being able to reach an A+ energy rating.

Solar thermal energy, we call in that way the harnessing of incident energy from the sun to produce heat by means of thermal collectors that generate, and accumulators that store hot water for consumption, whether hot sanitary water, heating or any other energy forms.

Enerpal performs the dimensioning of the generation installation of thermal energy either for the Heating System, the Hot Sanitary Water or the Industrial Process, studying the current consumption and proposing the most efficient and cost-effective solution, in turn improving the energy rating the client’s.

Enerpal conducts studies and improvements to optimize the consumption of electrical installations of any type of building, namely the consumption of lighting systems, elevators, boiler rooms, pumps for water and heating, etc …

As a starting point, it is analyzed the way in which the electrical energy consumed by the building is used, the consumption habits of its users and real needs that are demanded, as well as later proposing the most profitable improvement options for the client.

Enerpal has the means and the experience to realize the design, construction, operation and maintenance of this type of solutions:

  • Optimization of the electricity supply contract, through the review of the contracted fixed term and the negotiation of the electric energy tariff.
  • Retrofit of electric energy consumption elements by more modern and efficient models, such as: lighting systems, pumping systems, electric motors, etc …
  • Implementation of systems that allow to reduce the consumption of reactive energy associated with electrical installations which charges, on a monthly basis, on the cost of the energy bill.
  • Implementation of more economical, efficient and ecological energy generation systems, such as photovoltaic self-consumption or wind power plants.

We call it self-consumption to the electric energy generated with technologies for harnessing wind and sun resources for own use.

Enerpal carries out the sizing of the electric power generation plant, studying the current consumption and proposing the most efficient and cost-effective solution, in turn improving the customer’s energy rating.

Enerpal is committed to the electric vehicle and “sustainable mobility”, and in this respect, it considers as basic criteria savings in economic terms, the environmental care in ecological terms and the energy efficiency in terms of resources optimization.

For the development of cities in the next future for both existing buildings and urban areas as well as in new building promotions, provision shall be made for the infrastructures necessary to enhance such concept of “sustainable mobility” by using the “electric vehicle“, taking into account the needs and mobility demands of end users: private and public transport.

Enerpal has the means and the experience to carry out the implantation of required infrastructures for recharging electric vehicles:

  • In parking spaces of public buildings and car parks.
  • In parking spaces of private buildings.
  • At existing service and gas stations.

Enerpal offers its clients different design, installation and legalization modalities for the implementation of Electric Vehicle Recharge Points:

  • Powered-up by means of connection to the Utility grid, in conjunction with the negotiation on the electricity supply contract necessary for the operation that best suits the needs of each client.
  • Powered-up by a self-consumption photovoltaic and/or wind power plant, in such a way that users have at their disposal electrical energy from renewable sources, by taking advantage of the roofs of buildings or free areas where recharging points are implemented.

All of this would enable cities and their inhabitants to have sustainable urban mobility on a daily basis, substantially reducing pollution rates, improving the environmental quality of the surrounding, providing a means of transport at a lower cost and promoting sustainable energy independence.
