Episode 41 of The Climate Tech Podcast explores a fresh angle in energy efficiency: using waste heat from industrial processes to power cooling systems. Lucas and Luna dive into the story of a startup called 'Cooling as a Service' (CaaS) that has developed a sorption-based chiller which converts 80% of waste heat into cooling for data centers and factories. They discuss how this technology could reduce global energy demand for cooling by 15% by 2030, cite a pilot project with a German steel plant that cut electricity costs by 30%, and touch on the economics of heat-driven refrigeration versus traditional vapor-compression systems. The hosts also consider the regulatory push from the EU's Energy Efficiency Directive and how this fits into the broader 'waste heat recovery' market, projected to hit $50 billion by 2027. No prior knowledge assumed—just a sharp, specific look at turning a problem (heat) into a solution (cooling). #WasteHeatRecovery #CleanCooling #EnergyEfficiency #IndustrialDecarbonization #SorptionChiller #DataCenterCooling #ClimateTech #BusinessAndTechnology #LucasAndLuna #PodcastEpisode #StartupStory #HeatToCool #CoolingAsAService #EUEnergyDirective #Decarbonization #EnergyTransition #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Fexingo founder and producer: Ibnul Jaif Farabi Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
