Strategic Masterplan Energy
How to electrify heating sources and increase your self consumption by better valorising renewables injection?
→ Logistics warehouses typically have a low self-consumption percentage (<30%). Therefore, optimization of energy flows are recommended to optimize the valorization of your assets
- What is the potential to electrify your heating? We will guide you from feasibility to project completion.
- Can your load profile easily be adapted to your production profile (e.g. electric vehicles charging)?
- Can you optimize energy flows by implementing energy exchanges between different sites?
- Is a battery energy storage system (BESS) beneficial? If so, do you better invest in one central BESS with energy exchanges or multiple local BESS?

Strategic Masterplan Electric Vehicles
Will your car fleet electrify at a fast pace in the coming years? Do you already have a fleet charging strategy in place?
- Cars typically drive 40km/day and stand still for 22 hours
- Electric vehicles charge on average 45% at the office, 45% at home and 10% elsewhere
- How to optimize my charging strategy based on on-site PV production and dynamic energy prices, taking into account connection capacity and site constraints?
- Are on-site batteries beneficial to flatten (charging) peaks?
- Develop together with us a masterplan to electrify your car fleet electrification.

ACCESS TO DATA.
Measurement brings knowledge
The first precondition to start your journey is to have access to your data. We help you to visualize your data and give you advanced energy insights. Your data will be visualized with our software partner Dexma.
It all starts with the data of your head meter and, if available, submeters on major consumer sources. We analyse your data and benchmark it for advanced energy insights.
Based on this knowledge, it’s our passion to unleash and valorize this potential.
ENERGY
01
Reduce Energy Use
By addressing the building ‘envelope’, insulation and optimizing energy use.
02
Shift Energy Sources
All out on solar energy and electrification of heating, cooling and domestic hot water in buildings.
03
Improve Renewables Integration
Facilitate the integration of renewables by optimizing self consumption, energy exchanges and energy storage systems.
04
Address Refrigerants
Todays refrigerants are potent greenhouse gases. Emissions are reduced by managing leaks within buildings, as well as proper disposal. Ultimately, these fluorinated gases can be replaced with alternatives.

Use cases
01. Reduce Energy Use
PROJECT SCOPE: CO2 emissions & energy cost reduction in a warehouse
Step 1 (Trias Energetica): Reduce energy use
→ Firstly, address heat losses through building envelope, lighting efficiency etc. by developing a digital twin.
Benefits
- Different scenarios (roof, walls, etc) simulated with dynamic modeling of a digital twin
- Reduction in heat pump investment cost
- Higher thermal inertia
- Increased thermal comfort and well-being
02. Shift Energy Sources
PROJECT SCOPE: CO2 emissions & energy cost reduction in a warehouse
Step 2 and 3 (Trias Energetica): Electrify heating sources
→ Use heat pumps as a low-carbon heat source
Benefits
- Cost-effective investment: Average energy use reduction of more than a factor 3
- Efficient solution for reducing CO2 emissions
- We compare different heat pumps (refrigerants) and installations based on ROI and CO2 reductions including technical limitations.
Arcade MEP elaborates on the chosen concept from design to the final delivery of the installation.
