Your choices:
1 Process heat (150 - 1000 °C); 2 Electricity; 3 Wind
| What is your resource? | What do you want to deliver? | What is the service the customer wants? |
| Biomass (digestible sludge) | District cooling | Comfortable indoor climate |
| Biomass (fermentable sludge) | District heating | Electricity |
| Biomass (solid) | 2 Electricity | Process cooling (< 0 °C) |
| Geothermal | Fuel: Gaseous | Process heat/steam (50 - 150 °C) |
| Sunshine | Fuel: Liquid | 1 Process heat (150 - 1000 °C) |
| Water | Fuel: Solid | Process heat (> 1000 °C) |
| 3 Wind | Local cooling (ind. house) | Transport |
| Residual oils/fats etc | Local heating (ind. house) |
The supply of wind power may be guaranteed by a wind power installation or simply by contracting the electricity delivery to be 100% wind power and will render the industrial process to be classified as operating on a sustainable energy resource.
