IMPULSE 2025

IMPULSE 2025 is a large-scale project led by Teréga which consists in a new approach to energy systems, built on industrial and digital technologies. Through IMPULSE 2025, Teréga hopes to recover lost energy for appropriate use at the opportune moment for the consumer in a circular economy approach 

In the end, this project will allow the creation of new synergies and maximise interconnections in such a way that the different energy grids (gas, electricity, heat) will be seen as a unified, smart system.

The IMPULSE 2025 project is first and foremost an operational ecosystem established around multi-energy systems, with an innovative technological and digital concept at its heart.
Indeed, this project has a platform that offers digital services covering all the design, control and optimisation processes of a multi-energy system.
As a committed company, we have designed this platform with digital frugality in mind.

As the driving force behind the IMPULSE 2025 project, Teréga sought to bring in scientific expertise from:

• the LaTEP (Laboratory for Heat, Energy and Processes): attached to the University of Pau and the Pays de l’Adour, the partner team has worked particularly on the aspects of the project associated with the simulation and dynamic optimisation of multi-energy systems,

• and IPESE (Industrial Process and Energy Systems Engineering): incorporated into the Federal Polytechnic School of Lausanne, this research group led by Professor François Maréchal, an international authority in the field of decision-making tools for multi-energy system design, worked on the energy system’s multi-objective optimisation software.
  

“Teréga is happy to join its expertise with the skills of the top specialists in energy systems. We are united around a single goal: completion of the IMPULSE 2025 project, a new and necessary approach to the energy system. This project will allow us to demonstrate that it is by optimising existing resources we will meet a large part of the challenges involved in environmental and energy transition.” Dominique Mockly – Chairman and CEO of Teréga

Through the adaptability of infrastructures and the optimisation of existing energy resources, the benefits of this project will be economic, but also:

• environmental, through the BE Positif programme, of which the IMPULSE 2025 is an integral part. It will enable a reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, encourage the integration of renewable energies, thus meeting the energy efficiency improvement targets set in the Paris Agreement (2015),

• energy-related, due to the complementarity of networks encouraging energy optimisation,

• operational, through real-time management of this future dynamic grid.

This project is financed by the Nouvelle-Aquitaine
