Vision vs. reality – why political intervention is essential to unleash heat pumps energy savings potential in industrial and commercial applications. Buildings need a comfortable indoor temperature…

Heat pumps are considered large if they exceed capacities of 100kW. They can easily reach the one to several megawatt range with the largest units providing 35MW in a single machine. Currently…

Until now, there was no efficient way for industries generating excess heat to provide it to nearby users who need it. This could provide potential income for the heat ‘source,’ and a way to lower…

Electromagnetic processing technologies use wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum that correspond to microwave, radio waves, infrared, and ultra violet to heat materials. Direct heating methods…

Recover energy, don’t waste it! What do a Norwegian fjord, a Belgian brewery, a Danish dairy plant, a Finnish data center, a German office building, and a French sports center (and many more) have in…

Compressed-Air-and-Heat-System As a partner of leading global industry fair Hannover Messe, we are always spending a few days at the fair to "scout" some relevant technology and service solutions.…

As the world races to decarbonize, industrial process heating emerges as a critical frontier. A new study by Agora Industry reveals that direct electrification technologies could potentially meet 90%…

Today, global industry consumes a vast amount of energy. The biggest challenge is that as much as half of it is wasted due to the inefficient and complicated recovery of low-grade energy. Heat in the…
