LA GEOTHERMIE AU COEUR DU PROJET

Ce projet s’inscrit dans une démarche ambitieuse de neutralité carbone et de haute performance énergétique. Le chantier CircularSteam repose sur une solution géothermique fermée innovante, exploitant la chaleur naturelle du sous-sol pour assurer le chauffage et le refroidissement des 7000 m² du bâtiment. Un champ de 30 sondes géothermiques en boucle fermée à 140 mètres de profondeur, sont installées par la société de forage WellDoneDrill.

De plus, la chaleur dissipée par les tests réalisés sur les pompes à chaleur industrielles fabriquées par Armstrong au sein de ce bâtiment, sera récupérée pour équilibrer le sol et ainsi assurer la pérennité de l’installation géothermique sur des dizaines d’années. L’énergie géothermique, choisie pour répondre aux besoins énergétiques de chauffage et de refroidissement, permettra de réduire l’empreinte environnementale du bâtiment tout en soutenant les ambitions de durabilité d’Armstrong International.

RESOLIA a été chargé d’étudier, de tester, de dimensionner et de développer cette installation géothermique. À la suite d’une étude de pré-faisabilité et d’un test de réponse thermique, RESOLIA a réalisé la conception finale et supervise maintenant l’installation du champ de sondes géothermiques.

PERFORMANCE ENERGETIQUE EXEMPLAIRE

Le système permettra de couvrir les besoins de chauffage du bâtiment à hauteur d’environ 200 MWh par an. Grâce à l’utilisation d’une pompe à chaleur, qui possède un coefficient de performance très élevé, seule une consommation électrique d’environ 40 MWh sera nécessaire pour produire cette énergie thermique.

Au-delà de la performance énergétique, c’est sur le plan environnemental que le projet révèle tout son potentiel. En comparaison avec une solution classique au gaz, l’installation géothermique permet une réduction massive des émissions de CO2.

  • Solution gaz traditionnelle : environ 40 tonnes de CO2 par an
  • Solution géothermique avec pompe à chaleur : environ 7,4 tonnes de CO2 par an

Soit une diminution de plus de 80 % des émissions de CO2 et un gain annuel d’environ 32 tonnes de CO2 évitées.

Ce résultat s’inscrit pleinement dans les objectifs climatiques européens et dans la stratégie de décarbonation d’Armstrong International, qui confirme ici son rôle de pionnier industriel engagé dans la transition énergétique.

Au-delà des chiffres, ce projet illustre une conviction forte : la transition énergétique des infrastructures industrielles passe par des solutions locales, résilientes et maîtrisées.

Dans un contexte géopolitique tendu et face à la hausse des prix des énergies fossiles, ce chantier constitue ainsi une vitrine concrète : une approche globale visant à optimiser les flux énergétiques, réduire les pertes et inscrire durablement l’industrie dans une économie circulaire et bas carbone.

OBJECTIF DE DÉCARBONATION

L’étude de pré-faisabilité a évalué la pertinence de la géothermie pour le site, en prenant en compte les aspects réglementaires et techniques pour garantir une solution conforme aux exigences légales et aux conditions géologiques locales. Les résultats ont permis de dimensionner le champ de sondes et d’orienter les choix techniques initiaux.

Lors de la phase de conception finale, RESOLIA a collaboré étroitement avec le bureau Sense Engineering, qui supervise les équipes de conception spécialisées en HVAC, techniques spéciales et gros œuvre pour confirmer les besoins thermiques, identifier les contraintes d’installation et établir un agencement précis des sondes.

Durant la phase d’installation, RESOLIA, dans le cadre d’un contrat Design & Build, réalise le champ de sondes et les liaisons horizontales en partenariat avec WellDoneDrill, leader du forage géothermique wallon.

En intégrant l’énergie géothermique dans la conception du bâtiment, Armstrong se positionne comme un acteur innovant de la transition énergétique, en mettant en place une installation durable et performante. RESOLIA offre un service clé en main unique, alliant conception et construction avec une garantie de résultat.

Livrables clés :

  • Étude de (pré)-faisabilité géothermique
  • Réalisation d’un forage de test et Test de Réponse Thermique (TRT)
  • Étude de conception dynamique, dimensionnement du champ de sondes et recommandations HVAC
  • Suivi des forages et des liaisons horizontales
  • Tests finaux et mise en service

 

LA GÉOTHERMIE FERMÉE, C’EST QUOI ?

La géothermie fermée repose sur un principe simple mais redoutablement efficace : utiliser la chaleur naturelle du sous-sol pour répondre aux besoins de chauffage et de refroidissement du bâtiment. Ce système innovant fonctionne grâce à un réseau de sondes géothermiques, installées verticalement dans le sol et reliées à un circuit fermé. Installées par la société de forage géothermique WellDoneDrill et plongées à 140 mètres de profondeur, ces sondes captent la chaleur stable et renouvelable du sous-sol. En hiver, cette énergie naturelle est utilisée pour chauffer le bâtiment, tandis qu’en été, le système inverse le processus pour évacuer l’excès de chaleur et assurer un refroidissement optimal. Il s’agit donc d’un système énergétique renouvelable, efficace, pérenne et surtout local, qui permet de s’affranchir d’importation de combustible fossile.

Pour ce chantier, un champ de sondes géothermiques de dernière génération a été spécialement conçu. Il comprend 30 sondes réparties de manière optimale pour maximiser l’efficacité énergétique tout en minimisant l’impact environnemental. Cette technologie est associée à une pompe à chaleur, qui joue le rôle d’intermédiaire entre le sol et les systèmes de chauffage et de climatisation du bâtiment. La pompe à chaleur amplifie l’énergie thermique captée par les sondes et la redistribue en fonction des besoins, garantissant ainsi une performance constante et économe. De plus, la chaleur dissipée par les tests réalisés sur les pompes à chaleur industrielles au sein de ce bâtiment, sera récupérée pour équilibrer le sol et ainsi assurer la pérennité de l’installation géothermique sur des dizaines d’années.

 

L’un des avantages majeurs de la géothermie fermée réside dans sa capacité à réduire significativement la dépendance aux énergies fossiles. En exploitant une ressource inépuisable, renouvelable et locale, le système permet de limiter les émissions de CO2 liées au chauffage et au refroidissement du bâtiment. Par ailleurs, ce type d’installation ne nécessite que très peu d’entretien et offre une durabilité exceptionnelle, ce qui en fait un investissement à long terme particulièrement pertinent. Le choix de la géothermie pour le site de production d’Armstrong international ne s’inscrit pas seulement dans une démarche technique, mais reflète également une vision : celle d’un avenir où les infrastructures industrielles sont à la fois performantes et respectueuses de l’environnement.

Au total : plus de 32 tonnes de CO2/an seront évitées par rapport à une chaudière au gaz conventionnelle.

CITATIONS

“La géothermie fermée illustre parfaitement la manière de transformer des ressources locales et durables en leviers industriels concrets. Combinée à l’énergie solaire, à des matériaux durables et à une conception énergétique exemplaire, elle a été déterminante pour ce projet. Elle permet d’illustrer le concept de circularité de l’énergie, en récupérant la chaleur de nos bancs de tests et du refroidissement de nos bâtiments afin de la stocker dans le sol avec un équilibre annuel parfait. En rendant la chaleur industrielle circulaire grâce aux pompes à chaleur et à la géothermie, nous transformons une contrainte énergétique en un levier durable de compétitivité.”

Rossen Ivanov – Managing Director EMEA – Armstrong International   

 

“ Le lancement de ce chantier géothermique marque concrètement le démarrage des travaux de rénovation de notre usine. L’intégration des énergies renouvelables, géothermie, photovoltaïque et récupération de chaleur,  s’est imposée comme une évidence dès la conception, car notre site est pensé comme un démonstrateur grandeur nature des solutions proposées à nos clients. Cette usine constitue le premier pilier européen de notre stratégie de livraison de pompes à chaleur industrielles et nous permettra de répondre rapidement à la forte croissance de la demande sur le marché. La fabrication de pompes à chaleur est déjà en cours sur notre site actuel : cela nous permet de sécuriser et d’optimiser dès aujourd’hui nos processus industriels, afin que la montée en cadence de la nouvelle usine soit pleinement maîtrisée et à maturité dès son ouverture.”

Nicolas Gondouin – Operations Director EMEA – Armstrong International

 

Ce projet démontre qu’il est possible de fournir de la chaleur (et du froid) à un bâtiment en se basant sur des solutions pragmatiques et immédiatement déployables. En réalisant l’étude et le dimensionnement de ce champ de sondes, RESOLIA a misé sur une technologie locale, renouvelable et d’une pérennité exceptionnelle, capable de sécuriser les coûts énergétiques d’Armstrong pour les prochaines décennies. Cette installation géothermique, c’est un modèle industriel robuste, conçu pour être répliqué à large échelle en Wallonie et sur tous types de bâtiments en Europe. C’est la preuve par l’exemple qu’allier performance thermique et souveraineté environnementale est aujourd’hui une réalité accessible pour tout le monde.

Nicolas Vanhecke – Directeur opérationnel de RESOLIA

 

CADRE RÉGLEMENTAIRE WALLON

Le compte à rebours est lancé.

La sortie progressive des combustibles fossiles est déjà une réalité en Belgique. Le mazout de chauffage est désormais interdit dans les nouvelles constructions dans l’ensemble des Régions, et son usage est voué à disparaître progressivement lors des rénovations. Le gaz naturel suit la même trajectoire : déjà exclu de nombreux projets neufs et soumis à des critères de plus en plus stricts, il ne constituera plus une solution de référence dans les années à venir. Cette réalité règlementaire renforce davantage l’opportunité de créer des projets de géothermie pour accéder à des technologies de décarbonation. Une technologie exigeant aussi le développement de l’électrification du réseau depuis le conflit entre l’Iran, les Etats-Unis et Isräel. La facture européenne liée aux combustibles fossiles a d’ailleurs augmenté de plus de 22 milliards d’euros en moins de 50 jours. Une illustration concrète de l’impact considérable de cette crise sur notre économie.

Aujourd’hui, force est de constater que la décarbonation est en marche. Les foreuses entament leur travail et les sondes géothermiques sont placées dans plusieurs chantiers aux quatre coins de la Wallonie qui n’a pas attendu cette nouvelle crise énergétique pour amorcer le virage de la décarbonation.

Il y a près de 5 ans déjà, la Région wallonne a lancé un appel à projets relatif à la géothermie de faible et moyenne profondeur allant jusqu’à 1.200 mètres afin de stimuler le secteur. Son objectif : encourager le développement de la géothermie peu profonde. Après une première édition en 2021, cette fois, l’enveloppe atteint 28 millions d’euros de subsides provenant du Plan de Relance de la Wallonie. Un montant attribué à 33 projets qui devraient permettre de produire 45,5 GWh de chaleur (équivalant aux besoins de 3.500 ménages) et d’éviter annuellement les émissions de 10.000 tonnes de CO2.

La géothermie est une énergie renouvelable locale, respectueuse de l’environnement, performante, pérenne et économique. Elle détient plusieurs avantages : sa disponibilité permanente en sous-sol, peu importe les conditions météo, peut fournir chauffage, refroidissement et stockage de chaleur et de froid. Encore peu répandue, sa part dans le mix énergétique wallon est amenée à croître aux côtés d’autres énergies renouvelables, pour soutenir les objectifs de la Stratégie “chaleur” et le Plan Air Climat Énergie 2030 de la Région. Ce plan l’engage à réduire de 55% les émissions de gaz à effet de serre, à doubler les énergies renouvelables d’ici à 2030, à améliorer la qualité de l’air et à réduire la précarité énergétique.

 

OBJECTIF : ZÉRO CARBONE D’ICI 2050 /

Dans ce contexte, le projet CircularSteam d’Armstrong s’inscrit pleinement dans les objectifs européens et régionaux en matière de transition énergétique et de décarbonation. L’entreprise contribue activement à la réduction des émissions atmosphériques en accompagnant l’industrie vers des solutions bas carbone locales, durables et performantes. Cette démarche s’inscrit en cohérence avec la réglementation wallonne, qui confirme l’objectif de doublement de la production d’énergies renouvelables à l’horizon 2030, tandis que la Wallonie amorce sa sortie progressive des énergies fossiles d’ici 2050.

 

L’Union européenne s’est fixé l’objectif ambitieux de devenir le premier continent neutre en

carbone d’ici 2050. Pour y parvenir, l’UE compte :

  • Réduire de 55% ses émissions de gaz à effet de serre d’ici 2030 par rapport aux niveaux de 1990;
  • Augmenter la part des énergies renouvelables dans la consommation d’énergie de l’UE à au moins 32% d’ici 2030;
  • Augmenter l’efficacité énergétique de l’UE d’au moins 32,5% d’ici 2030;
  • Investir 1 milliard d’euros dans la transition énergétique au cours des dix prochaines années;
  • Développer une économie circulaire européenne afin de réduire les déchets, réutiliser et recycler les matières premières, et minimiser l’impact environnemental.

 

Le lancement du Pacte vert pour l’Europe vise à transformer l’ensemble de son économie à neutralité climatique d’ici 2050. Ces ambitions reflètent donc l’engagement de l’UE à accélérer la transition vers une économie plus verte et plus durable.

 

CircularSteam d’Armstrong International en quelques chiffres :

 

  • 25 000 m² : la superficie totale du terrain
  • 7 000 m² : la surface dédiée à l’usine et aux espaces de stockage
  • 900 m² : la surface consacrée aux espaces administratifs
  • 100 MW : la capacité annuelle maximale de pompes à chaleur industrielles fabriquées

Armstrong International Secures Funding from European Commission’s Innovation Fund to Support Factory Expansion in Herstal, Belgium

By: Armstrong International

 

HERSTAL, BELGIUM. [Oct. 29, 2024] — Armstrong International, a global leader in thermal utilities, has secured funding from the European Commission’s Innovation Fund to accelerate the expansion of its manufacturing facility in Herstal, Belgium. The grant, managed by the “European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency” (CINEA), will enhance Armstrong’s capacity to produce innovative low-carbon technologies, supporting Europe’s broader objectives of strengthening industrial manufacturing and advancing climate neutrality.

“This support allows us to fast-track the development of our heat pump production capabilities, which are crucial for Europe’s journey toward decarbonization,” said Kurt Armstrong, CEO of Armstrong International. “High-temperature heat pumps are central to our Circular Thermal℠ methodology, which integrates de-steaming, advanced heat recovery, and low-grade heat recovery. This approach is increasingly adopted by companies with Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) commitments as they aim to decarbonize their thermal systems by 2030.”

Armstrong’s Herstal project is one of 25 cleantech manufacturing projects selected under the European Commission’s 2023 call for proposals, receiving a portion of the €1.4 billion in cleantech grants (additional to 3.4 Bn€ for end users’ projects) from the Innovation Fund— Europe’s flagship financial program for advancing innovative low-carbon technologies.

“This expansion is a critical step in delivering sustainable, energy-efficient solutions for industrial applications across Europe,” said Rossen Ivanov, EMEA Managing Director at Armstrong. “It will help meet the growing demand in Europe for decarbonizing industrial heat below 200 degrees Celsius by recovering waste heat from processes and cooling systems—reducing up to 70% of the primary energy demand at industrial sites in sectors like food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, chemicals and other light industries. This ‘efficient electrification’ not only contributes towards climate goals, but also enhances energy security by replacing imported gas with local renewable electricity; and also boosts industrial competitiveness by reducing and stabilizing energy costs for EU industries.”

Construction at the Herstal site is set to begin in summer 2025, pending final Grant Agreement, with the facility expected to be operational by early 2027. The project includes a comprehensive infrastructure upgrade over two years, focusing on building a new modular facility capable of producing up to 50 MW of industrial high-temperature heat pumps by 2027.

Armstrong International Debuts First-of-its-Kind Water Heater Ascend® at 2024 ASPE Convention & Expo

By: Armstrong International

 

THREE RIVERS, MICH. [Oct. 18, 2024] —Today, at the 2024 ASPE Convention & Expo, global thermal energy solutions provider Armstrong International introduced Ascend®—the first high-efficiency, on-demand, gas-fired water heater with a fully integrated digital mixing valve.

This single footprint, tankless hot water generation and water temperature control solution is compliant with ASSE 1017, consumes less fossil fuel, reduces risks for scalding and waterborne pathogens (such as Legionella), and ensures precise +/- 2°F water temperature control. Ascend® heats water to temperatures above 140°F and distributes to points of use at a consistent, user-safe temperature using The Brain® Digital Recirculation Valve, Armstrong’s groundbreaking, precision water temperature control technology. The industry-leading water heater works seamlessly with Armstrong’s advanced hot water system management platform, SAGE®, for compliance with a Standard of Care such as ASHRAE 188 and VA 1061.

“The water heating market is being disrupted by a desire for net-zero buildings, and we see natural gas as a transitional technology,” said Kurt Armstrong, CEO of Armstrong International. “In response to the net-zero movement, industries like hospitality and higher education have long preferred high-efficiency gas-fired condensing technology. Although many municipalities no longer allow equipment that burns fossil fuels to be installed in new construction, many do still lack the necessary infrastructure to support total electrification.”

Additionally, with mechanical room space at a premium, electric water heaters need large storage tanks to keep up with peak system demand due to their slow recovery. Large storage tanks have been identified as incubation points for Legionella pneumophila that can lead to Legionellosis. Ascend® addresses these challenges and in the longer term can not only be integrated with a heat pump, but also upgraded to work with hydrogen and/or biogas when the utilities and infrastructure are able to support.

“Our intelligent solutions are hard at work, saving time, money and energy for some of the largest, most efficient companies around the world,” Armstrong added. “We are delighted to offer an exceptional product like Ascend® for both new and existing customers.”

Currently available in North America and offered in three sizes: 800, 1M, and 1.5M BTU. Ascend® is a component of Armstrong International’s Armada℠ Digital Solutions for Healthy Hot Water. Designed specifically for recirculating domestic hot water systems, Armada℠ addresses critical elements of a water safety management plan.
