SUSTAINABLE HEAT
In a new study, researchers from UNED investigated how AI can predict the performance of the Enerin AS‘s novel Stirling cycle high-temperature heat pump (SC-HTHP). They compared two machine-learning models to determine which can estimate the system’s efficiency most accurately.
Pioneering Industrial Decarbonisation: SUSHEAT and the 2cool2waste Cluster Take the Stage
At the October 2025 2cool2waste webinar, 15 Horizon Europe projects shared decarbonisation solutions. SUSHEAT stood out with flexible, on-demand heating. Coordinator Dr. Ruben Barbero Fresno urged systemic change. The cluster’s collaboration signals Europe’s readiness for clean, competitive, real-world industrial transformation.
Digital twins and AI-driven control systems are transforming industrial heat supply. The SUSHEAT project develops a digital twin to optimize high-temperature heat pumps, integrating renewable energy and thermal storage for greater efficiency and reliability. This innovation supports the EU’s net-zero goals by 2050, paving the way for sustainable industrial energy systems.
On 12 June, during the 10th IEA Global Conference on Energy Efficiency, We Don’t Have Time hosted a high-level broadcast featuring SUSHEAT innovations, spotlighting industrial waste heat recovery as a key driver of energy efficiency and climate action in Europe.

Industrial heat is one of Europe’s greatest untapped energy efficiency opportunities. With industry accounting for 20% of Europe’s total carbon emissions, unlocking low-carbon heating solutions is essential to achieving climate goals, boosting competitiveness, and secure a sustainable energy future.
Join us for the high-level session “Waste Industrial Heat Into Wealth: New Innovations, Big Opportunities”, taking place on the sidelines of the 10th IEA Global Conference on Energy Efficiency. This session is hosted by We Don’t Have Time, in collaboration with the SUSHEAT project.
This broadcast will spotlight cutting-edge solutions – including high-temperature heat pumps, thermal energy storage, and smart integration systems – that can deliver industrial heat at 150–250°C without fossil fuels. Hear directly from project leaders, EU policymakers, and industrial energy experts as they discuss how to turn today’s energy losses into tomorrow’s climate wins.
