Self-sufficient properties in Linköping
Catena is making significant strides towards sustainability by reducing carbon footprints and operating costs with a new, self-sufficient energy system that connects logistics facilities in Linköping.
Catena is continuously working to reduce the carbon footprint and operating costs of its properties by improving energy efficiency. A great example of this effort is Catena's area on Köpetorpsgatan, located right next to the airport in Linköping.
In this area, Catena has three logistics facilities totaling 57,000 sqm, with tenants including Arla, ICA, and Bring. Additionally, Catena has land available for another building of approximately 10,000 sqm.
For the three existing buildings, as well as a future fourth building, a new shared energy system is being constructed that will be entirely self-sufficient and disconnected from the district heating system. The new system is based on storing the heat generated by the refrigeration units in the freezer storage of one building in a geothermal energy storage system, which consists of about 50 boreholes with a total drilling depth of 15,000 meters.
