DTEC (Discharged Thermal Energy Conversion）
DTEC (Discharged Thermal Energy Conversion）
Characteristics of DTEC
- Effective Utilization of Low Temperature Waste Heat
DTEC enables electricity production using low temperature waste heat (200℃ or less) from industries such as oil refineries, steel plants, and chemical plants.
- Energy-savings and CO2 Emission Reduction
DTEC saves energy and reduces CO2 because the system does not use fossil fuels.
- Possible Substitute for Cooling Facilities
The system can be used in substitute of traditional cooling facilities.
- Desalination
The system can produce fresh water by desalination (optional).
For details, please refer to "Desalination and Secondary Use of Deep Seawater".

Generation Cost
| Type | Construction cost (※3) | Load factor | Depreciation cost (※4) |
|---|---|---|---|
| DTEC (MW scale) | Approx. JPY300～400k/kW | 80～95% | JPY2.4～3.2/kWh |
| Photovoltaic | Approx. JPY600k/kW | 12～14% | JPY33～38/kWh |
| Wind | Approx. JPY200k/kW | 15～25% | JPY6.1～10/kWh |
(※3) The construction cost of DTEC plant is referential since
it is much affected by the size of waste heat quantity and characteristics.
(※4) Depreciation period：15 years. Interests are not considered for the
estimates.
