Sign upAn eco-designed mobile heat storage solution for recovering industrial co2 emissions
The EcoStock by Eco-Tech Ceram implemented by ArcelorMittal in Dunkerque (France) in 2022
With an energy efficiency rate of around 40, the Eco-Stock is capable of converting waste heat into low-carbon energy.
The EcoStock by Eco-Tech Ceram implemented by Villeroy&Boch in Valence d'Agen (France) in 2023
Energy consumption decreased by 10%, avoiding 400 tCO2/year by recovering 2,000 MWh of waste heat. Phase 2 will add 200 tCO2/year reductions and 1,000 MWh savings. Phases 1 and 2 are projected to save €150,000 annually.
The EcoStock by Eco-Tech Ceram implemented by Wienerberger AG in Pontigny (France) in 2024
This solution is expected to save 2,100 MWh annually and reduce CO2 emissions by over 450 tonnes per year. With a carbon footprint of 350 tCO2e and a 20-year lifespan, the system offsets its impact in just over nine months. Wienerberger avoided upfront investment by purchasing decarbonised heat “as a service,” representing annual savings of €105,000 at a natural gas price of €50/MWh.

An eco-designed mobile heat storage solution for recovering industrial co2 emissions
A major amount of the energy consumed in the industry is wasted as lost heat, which represents millions of tons of CO2 uselessly produced. Eco-Tech Ceram’s solution is to recover the heat contained in industrial fumes and store it in refractory ceramics made from industrial co-products. This accumulated heat can either be used as a heating source – hot air at constant temperature level is provided (up to 1000°C) – or be converted into electricity.
