Summary
Vicinity Energy, a decarbonization leader with the nation’s largest portfolio of district energy systems, announced agreements with Everllence [formerly MAN Energy Solutions], and DCO Energy. This partnership secures the latest achievement in Vicinity's electrification strategy that is already well underway in Boston and Cambridge, locking in the installation of a 35MW river-based industrial-scale heat pump complex for steam generation with the ability to reach over 70 million square feet of building space.
The industrial-scale heat pump will be provided by Everllence while the installation and balance of plant modifications will be completed by DCO. A natural gas boiler will be removed to make way for the new, emissions-free heat pump, with demolition already underway in preparation for the heat pump installation at Vicinity’s Kendall Square facility by 2028. The heat pump will be collocated at the existing Kendall plant site, leveraging Kendall’s existing electrical interconnect. This technology will enable Vicinity to harness the inherent heat of the Charles River, turning it into a renewable energy resource to generate and deliver carbon-free thermal energy, known as eSteam™, to its customers.
