The overarching aim of RE-WITCH is to deliver cost-competitive, game-changing solutions in the field of sustainable industrial cooling and heating. To do so, RE-WITCH will demonstrate advanced thermally-driven industrial cooling technologies based on ADsorption and ABsorption processes driven by an optimized mix of low-grade waste and renewable sources (innovative high vacuum flat plate solar collectors). Such solutions will be demonstrated in 4 demo sites encompassing food and beverage sectors as well as industrial sectors where heat-to-cold solutions are not yet widely explored (bio-refinery, pharmaceutical). The activity will be completed by studying the replicability of proposed technologies in replication sites even integrated with DHN. The project will be delivered by an industrial-driven consortium of 26 partners from 10 countries and it is composed by some of the most innovative SMEs, LEs and R&D centers in the field of industrial renewable H&C leveraging experience from industrial and EU-funded projects (HYCOOL, SO-WHAT, Indus3Es). The multi-disciplinary composition of the consortium ensures that all the challenges (technical and non-) will be addressed to ultimately bring RE-WITCH solutions to the market by 2029. Innovative open access modelling platforms and engineering solutions will be also developed to facilitate the design, upscale, replication and integration in industrial processes of the proposed technologies. Thanks to a stakeholders’ driven dissemination and communication campaign, RE-WITCH will ultimately demonstrate transformative technological solutions that unlock the combined potential of low-grade waste and renewable heat use in industries, hence also targeting integration of heat-to-cold technologies into relevant EU Policies.

RE-WITCH的首要目标是在可持续工业制冷和供暖领域提供具有成本竞争力，改变游戏规则的解决方案。为此，RE-WITCH将展示先进的热驱动工业冷却技术，该技术基于吸附和吸收过程，由低品位废物和可再生资源（创新的高真空平板太阳能集热器）的优化组合驱动。这些解决方案将在4个示范点进行演示，包括食品和饮料部门以及尚未广泛探索热到冷解决方案的工业部门（生物炼油厂，制药）。这项活动将通过研究拟议技术在甚至与DHN结合的复制地点的可复制性来完成。该项目将由来自10个国家的26个合作伙伴组成的工业驱动联盟交付，由工业可再生能源水电领域的一些最具创新性的中小企业、小型企业和研发中心组成，利用工业和欧盟资助的项目（HYCOOL、SO-WHAT、industri3es）的经验。该联盟的多学科组成确保所有挑战（技术和非技术）都将得到解决，最终在2029年将RE-WITCH解决方案推向市场。还将开发创新的开放获取建模平台和工程解决方案，以促进拟议技术在工业过程中的设计、升级、复制和集成。由于利益相关者推动的传播和沟通活动，RE-WITCH最终将展示变革性的技术解决方案，释放工业中低品位废物和可再生热利用的综合潜力，从而也将热转冷技术整合到相关的欧盟政策中。
