Waste Heat Datacenter Westpoort – Lot 1 Heat pump
Vattenfall N.V. is launching a tender for a Heat Pump Station that will extract waste heat from a datacenter at Westpoort, increase the temperature using an industrial heat pump, and inject the produced heat into the existing district heating network of Westpoort Warmte. The project requires a heat pump solution capable of heating district heating water from 55–65 °C (condenser inlet) to 95–120 °C (condenser outlet, where 120 °C must sometimes be reached) using a waste heat source of 35–25 °C (evaporator inlet and outlet). The total heat output must be 25 MWth. The tender includes the development, realization, and maintenance of the installation and follows an innovation partnership procedure. The contracting authority expects a robust, energy-efficient, and maintenance-friendly solution that integrates seamlessly with the existing network and meets the high temperature requirements.
