Waste Heat Recovery

We connect you with specialist waste heat recovery engineers in your area. They'll assess your site, identify where heat is being lost, and design a system to put it to use without disrupting your operations.

What waste heat recovery delivers

  • Cut energy costs: Reuse heat you're already generating instead of buying more in.
  • Reduce reliance on fossil fuels: Lower demand on gas or oil-fired heating systems.
  • Improve process efficiency: Recovered heat can feed back into production or space heating.
  • Boost sustainability credentials: Strengthen ESG reporting and support net zero commitments.

Why use Energy Saving Scout

One form, not ten sales calls

Search "waste heat recovery installer near me" and you'll get a page of ads and directories that sell your details to anyone who'll pay. You end up fielding calls from engineers who've never seen your site.

We do it differently. Tell Jim about your project once: location, site size, what you're trying to achieve. We match you with specialists who actually cover your area and handle projects your size. No mass data-selling, no 20-call bombardment.

How it works

  • Answer a few quick questions, about your project, location, and what you're trying to achieve. Takes about a minute.
  • We match you against our partner network, specialists who work on projects like yours, not a generic call centre.
  • A specialist gets in touch, usually within 1-2 working days, to talk through your project and put together a proposal.

You're not committing to anything by asking. If it's not the right fit, you don't have to move forward.

Waste heat recovery for industrial and manufacturing sites

Whether the driver is cutting overheads, reducing emissions, or making better use of existing processes, the specialists in our network work on sites of every size and complexity.

  • Manufacturing plants: recover heat from furnaces, ovens, and compressors to reuse elsewhere on site.
  • Food and beverage production: capture heat from processing and refrigeration for reuse in hot water or space heating.
  • Data centres and server rooms: recover heat generated by cooling systems instead of venting it as waste.
  • Commercial laundries: recover heat from washing and drying processes to reduce water and energy costs.

Manufacturing plants

Furnaces, ovens, and compressors generate significant heat that often goes to waste. Capturing and reusing it elsewhere on site can meaningfully cut overall energy costs.

Food and beverage production

Processing and refrigeration generate heat that can often be recovered and reused for hot water or space heating, reducing reliance on separate heating systems.

Data centres and server rooms

Cooling systems remove significant heat from server rooms, most of which is simply vented. Recovering that heat for reuse elsewhere turns a cooling cost into a useful energy source.

Commercial laundries

Washing and drying processes generate a steady supply of waste heat and water. Recovery systems can reduce both energy and water costs across a busy laundry operation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a waste heat recovery system cost?

It depends on your process, the scale of heat being recovered, and how the recovered heat will be used. That's why we match you with a specialist who'll assess your site rather than give you a generic price.

Common sources include furnaces, ovens, compressors, refrigeration, and cooling systems. A specialist can identify where heat is being lost and whether it's practical to recover on your site.

This varies depending on the scale of heat being recovered and how it's reused, but waste heat recovery is often one of the faster-paying-back efficiency measures for high-heat processes. Your matched specialist can model this for your site.

Most assessments and much of the installation work can be scheduled around your operating hours. Your specialist will confirm this when they scope the project.

Some specialists offer funded models, and grants may apply depending on your site and location. Flag this in the quiz and we'll factor it into who you're matched with.
