Reeniu is an initiative with a clear mission – reducing the carbon footprint of industries for a more economical and ecological world. The project encapsulates innovations to reduce fossil fuels, avoid water wastage, reduce pollution, and move steadily towards zero waste. At its core, REENIU combines state-of-the-art cleantech with a passion for ecological transition, implementing tailored solutions in the food sector and beyond. From improving the thermal exchange of glycol loops to optimizing the use of water and energy, every project is a structured step toward a sustainable industrial future. The approach includes a robust network: branches distributed internationally to deliver innovative products and systems that reduce energy consumption, water usage, noise production, and pollution while giving value to on-site waste.
Main Benefit: Key Facts and Figures
- 50+ GWH OF ENERGY SAVED
- 5000+ TCO2E AVOIDED
- 100,000+ M3 OF WATER SAVED
- 5+ YEARS OF OPERATION
Sometimes the victories are not grand explosions of change but rather a series of small, consistent improvements… which cumulatively make a huge impact.
Exploring the Technological Segments
The project is built on distinct technologies that each address different industrial needs. Under the banner “DISCOVER OUR TECHNOLOGIES BY SEGMENT,” the following areas stand out:
• COLD AND HEAT
• ELECTRIC POWER
• WATER AND EFFLUENT TREATMENTS
• TURNKEY MONITORING AND SUPPORT
In addition to further advancements – from thermal storage to more than 10 other innovations for efficient cold and heat production – REENIU covers an extensive array of solutions. Whether it is a photovoltaic solar power plant powering operations or reducing joule losses in power cables, these technologies not only optimize performance but also contribute significantly to decarbonizing operations.
Fostering Energy Efficiency Across Industries
In many modern industries, the secret to sustainability lies in getting smarter about energy use. The project emphasizes the importance of monitoring every step of processes – from cold and heat, followed by an efficient second step leveraging 14 innovative solutions, to the efficient production and consumption of electric power. In a world where every electron counts, the initiative showcases the integration of photovoltaic (PV) self-consumption and smart monitoring in water treatments that save water while dramatically reducing chemical consumption. It’s all about achieving those small victories that add up to monumental shifts in energy efficiency.
Innovative Solutions and Recent Developments
The prospect of innovation is always exciting. In REENIU’s scope, a few standout topics include:
• Improving the Thermal Exchange of Glycol Loops – Leveraging advanced thermal storage and innovative methods for efficient heating and cooling.
• Anti-Scale and Anti-Bacterial Water Treatment – A solution that monitors water consumption and promotes its reuse while reducing chemical usage.
• Heat Recovery – A tailored approach, not a one-size-fits-all recipe. There is no universal solution in industrial heat recovery; every factory is unique in its processes, temperatures, and flows.
• Energy Efficiency Through Monitoring – Instead of chasing one large hypothetical gain, it’s all about accumulating those small, meaningful victories.
• Mandatory Energy Audit or ISO 50001 – With new rules in force from January 1, 2026, major industries, including food and pharmaceutical sectors, will face tighter regulations via mandatory energy audits and a transition to ISO 50001. This change marks a pivotal moment in industrial energy management.
Tailored Solutions for Water and Effluent Treatments
Water is a precious resource, and its efficient use is central to REENIU’s vision. The technologies extend to monitoring water consumption with precision, combined with advanced anti-scale and anti-bacterial treatments. REENIU’s approach not only saves water but actively works to reduce harmful chemical usage, ensuring that each drop is used to its fullest potential. From water reuse strategies to comprehensive cleantech solutions, these innovations help industries sequester water usage while contributing to a cleaner environment.
