Design at the center

Since 2009, IRCI has been developing design as a core function through IRCI Engineering, which specializes in mechanical, cogeneration, and photovoltaic systems.

For us, design is the phase in which the value of a plant is truly decided: performance, reliability, construction times, and return on investment. That is why, for over 15 years, we have built a solid working method and cross-disciplinary skills to develop tailor-made, sustainable, and above all verifiable energy solutions.

Over the years, we have also consolidated our experience in the field of Project Financing, supporting ESCos and projects at European level. The goal is clear: to be a strategic partner for our customers, offering not only a service, but also continuous technical support to accompany them in their choices and their growth path.

PROJECT INDEPENDENCE:
Free choices, customer-oriented

Designing in-house means one very concrete thing: our decisions are not influenced by external constraints.

Our solutions are not created to “fit in” a product or brand, but to create asystem that is truly consistent with the objectives, operational constraints, and budget of the client:

Evaluate technical alternatives in an objective and transparent manner
Optimize performance and reliability throughout the entire life cycle of the plant
Select components and technologies based on the actual context and usage requirements.
Offering a tailor-made system, with a turnkey service

What we design

Mechanical systems
Design of mechanical and auxiliary plant systems, integration with existing processes, and optimization of energy consumption.

Cogeneration
CHP solutions designed to maximize self-consumption and improve overall efficiency, with economic and operational analyses.

Trigeneration
Integration of electricity, heat, and cooling production to increase yields and enhance usage profiles.

Photovoltaic
Design of PV systems integrated with consumption needs and logic, with assessment of producibility and savings scenarios.

Our working method

Phase 1: Analysis of the customer and their actual needs
We collect data, constraints, consumption profiles, and objectives: continuity, energy efficiency, cost reduction, redevelopment, decarbonization

Phase 2: Feasibility study and business plan
We evaluate technical options and economic returns: baseline scenario, benefits, CAPEX/OPEX, indicators, and assumptions. The goal is to provide the customer with an informed, sustainable, and consistent decision.

Phase 3: Preliminary design
We create a structured preliminary design that allows the customer to make comparisons: clear scope, plant configuration, guidelines, expected performance, constraints, and criteria.

Phase 4: Final design
We define solutions, dimensions, and integrations in detail, preparing the transition to implementation with technical clarity and control.
