This week, Kian Giahi and Florian Bonert attended ISH Frankfurt for DEPACT, the world’s leading trade fair for heating, air-conditioning, and energy technology. 🚀
Key trends:
✅ Climate-friendly propane (R290) has become the industry’s standard refrigerant.
✅ Large-scale heat pumps for district heating and commercial applications are gaining traction.
✅ Thermal energy storage solutions are emerging, promising increased efficiency.
✅ All-in-one systems integrate heating, cooling, hot water, and ventilation into compact units.
Innovation s that caught our attention:
💡 Qvantum International: Integrated “thermal battery” that optimizes self-consumption of PV electricity and flexible tariffs.
💡 elio – solar electric buildings: Intelligent combination of heat pump + infrared heating + PV + storage.
💡 Newton Energy Solutions: Thermal storage with 20-30 kWh – 8x more storage than a standard boiler.
💡 BlueHeart Energy: A heat pump without refrigerants – maintenance-free, silent, and currently being tested with OEMs.
