Energy plant room design
Engineering and design of heat pumps, borehole fields, district heating, free cooling and heat recovery. Experienced Norwegian specialists in energy plant room design.
The energy plant room is the heart of a sustainable building. If it is designed poorly, the building pays for it for forty years. We design energy plant rooms that are simple to operate and flexible enough to handle changes in use and the energy market.
Technologies
- Heat pumps: ground-source, seawater, air-to-water, cascade
- Borehole fields: sizing, balancing extraction and storage
- District heating and district cooling integrated with on-site production
- Free cooling from borehole fields, seawater or dry coolers
- Heat recovery from internal processes, cooling systems, data centres and exhaust air
Our role
- Concept selection and preliminary design with life-cycle costs (LCC)
- Detailed design of heating and cooling plants and control systems
- Tender documents and contractor evaluation
- Follow-up during construction and system balancing
- Start-up, functional testing and handover
What sets us apart
- Experience from over one hundred energy plant rooms at various scales
- Close collaboration with controls engineering — control sequences are not drawn up afterwards
- Designed for operation, not the drawing board: we are on site when the plant is commissioned
We can take responsibility for the full delivery, or act as a specialist resource alongside the general RIV designer.
