3 Our expertise Your success Upgrade Energy is an engineering group with a passion for designing, delivering and maintaining renewable energy projects. Established by a number of Belgian companies all experts in the fields of geothermal, biomass, wind and solar energy --- we offer our customers expert advice and integrated solutions and help them to realise their projects from start to finish. Our key focus: Strong engineering and building expertise. Project coordination from start to finish expertise. Sourcing and international purchasing 01

4 An energy boost for your company Energy, from whatever source, is an essential component of our economy. The worldwide need for energy is constantly growing and every restriction of availability is detrimental to further growth. We are still very dependent and the impact on the environment always more far-reaching. The not constitute a solution in the long term. Renewable energy therefore deserves our undivided attention just as much from an economic interest as from green considerations. clear: a single technology will never be able to meet our growing needs. several technologies are the only answer to this question. 02

5 Objective advice of your company s end product. Upgrade Energy is intent on limiting, as well as on controlling and predicting the energy costs. but actually go far beyond. We strive for maximum independence of the energy The experts of Upgrade Energy are well versed in all areas of renewable energy, which enables them to propose and integrate the right technology and 03

6 Upgrade Energy - measures, such as installing LED lighting or better insulation, to adopting a comprehensive, energy-conscious attitude throughout your company. costs always constitutes the basis for a comprehensive energy- to a detailed action plan where all measures that provide a significant advantage are described in detail. Upgrade Energy sees to a worry-free implementation of all measures so that you can focus on your core business. In cooperation with our partners, we guarantee quality and the highest efficiency. 04

7 Waste heat Recovery electricity. Large amounts of low temperature heat are available from following sources: - geothermal heating - biomass gasification and combustion - solar thermal - diesel engine and gas turbine exhaust heat - Waste heat from industrial processes The innovative solution for the conversion of these low temperature heat sources is called 05

8 Upgrade Energy - Solar systems Introducing solar energy to your business can lead to immediate cost savings and return on investment. Choosing a solar system also offers lower operating costs, increased control to a sustainability policy. Upgrade Energy can provide your business with comprehensive expertise in solar technology solutions, from practical advice to project management. We offer realistic solutions tailored to your specific building or process needs and our experienced team will guide you through your project from start to finish, from the strategic conceptual phase to design, construction and aftercare. together with you. 06

9 Upgrade Energy G3 55/15 Wind Turbine Wind energy is the process during which wind is converted into electrical energy using a generator. along with continuing research and development, we are able to provide wind energy more efficiently and more cost-effectively than ever before. which is interesting for companies with high consumption also at night and in the winter months. Upgrade Energy Wind Turbines ensure an efficient, effective and immediate return on investment. They can protect your company from generate can be used directly for production and consumption in the building. Upgrade Energy has developed unrivalled expertise, not only in engineering and design, but also in planning, maintenance and customer service. 07

10 Upgrade Energy Biomass Biomass is a form of renewable energy from natural waste. Various processes are used to convert organic waste into useful energy which can be used for heating, cooling, electricity and transport. Upgrade Energy and En-Bio provide integrated energy solutions through multidisciplinary team can see not only to engineering and construction, but also to the operation and maintenance of the entire facility. Sound organisation and supervision of biomass flows are essential for a successful project. 08

11 Upgrade Energy Geothermal heating and cooling an answer to the pressing energy needs of today, but moreover and a considerable reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. The extra investment in a geothermal heat pump is usually recovered 1/3 into its thereby ensuring a fine return on your investment. uses underground water bearing layers as energy storage and transport We determine the specific technology most suitable for your project on the basis of the geographic characteristics of your location and designing and implementing a geothermal system in pretty much any geographic region and for every economic sector, through an integrated approach: our team handles your project from design, to development and on to aftercare. 09

12 Upgrade Energy - Mini Smart Grid With the Mini Smart Grid system, Upgrade Energy enables you as much use as possible of locally generated renewable energy. This technology enables you to control intelligently the load cycle of electric vehicles and other electrical equipment through charging stations and thus to use locally generated energy as much as possible and grey energy from the grid as little as possible. The operation and results of the local Smart Grid system can be displayed on a monitor in a company lobby by means of dynamic of the fact that you are investing in renewable energy whilst showing that it is put to optimal use. Upgrade Energy is a pioneer in Mini Smart Grid systems and was, in cooperation with Voltspot, one of the first European players to offer such a system. 10

13 Financing Companies usually reserve their capital for investments in their core activities and therefore do not opt to invest in renewable energy themselves. Several financing models or rent-a-roof concepts offer the best of two worlds here: enjoying cheap green electricity without having to invest. Upgrade Energy is specialised in mounting such financing determine the right formula for your project and organisation. Because your operating funds are of vital importance for your company, you look for the best solutions your company and projects You will enjoy a safe investment thanks to the savings you make on energy costs and the income you generate through state subsidy s. 11

14 Energy platform Upgrade Energy is headquartered in Belgium whilst striving for rapid international expansion. We are carrying out projects with our subsidiary White Pavilion in China, currently the fastest growing region in the world. Upgrade Energy wants to offer a platform for companies with expertise in environmental technology and energy efficiency. We technologies or who focus on renewable energy projects. Then do not hesitate to contact us. 12
