(AOF) – TotalEnergies and the Le Havre Seine Métropole Urban Community are joining forces to supply heat to the urban network of Le Havre Sud. The residual heat recovered from the facilities of the Normandy Platform of TotalEnergies will replace the heat currently produced by the combustion of gas. It will supply the equivalent of 12,000 Le Havre homes and avoid the emission of 16,000 tonnes of CO2 per year.
By 2025, the Le Havre Seine Métropole Urban Community intends to extend its heating network from 12 to 60 km of pipes, in order to significantly increase the number of beneficiaries with access to cleaner and cheaper energy.
To do this, the project provides for the connection of the Normandy platform of TotalEnergies to the network operated by ResOcéane (Groupement Dalkia / CRAM) on behalf of the Urban Community. This network will now use 80% heat of renewable origin or recovered industrial heat.
With the commissioning of this unprecedented project in the region, the equivalent of 80 GWh of heat produced by the industrial processes of the platform will be captured and recovered, thus actively participating in the decarbonization and energy savings of the territory.
