Swedish manufacturer Aira launched its heat pump in Europe in 2024. The company told pv magazine it is now developing a full home energy management system proposition to integrate heating, solar, battery energy storage and electric vehicle charging.
TerraVis Energy claims its new heat pump system can achieve a seasonal coefficient performance of 3.5 and deliver 30 C of heat indoors at -50 C. CEO Lorenzo Rossi told pv magazine that the system could be produced at a lower cost than conventional models.
The Aquarea Loop heat pump system is intended for applications in residential and commercial buildings. It features a coefficient of performance of up to 5.9 and heating capacities ranging from 1.10 kW to 3.10 kW.
The manufacturer claims the new products are particularly suitable for older homes, renovations in extreme climates. All models are said to provide “reliable” cooling and heating at temperatures spanning from -30 C to 50 C.
Carrier, a US-based heating solutions provider, said its new AquaSnap 61AQ heat pump system can deliver high-temperature heating up to 75 C at outdoor temperatures as low as -7 C. The new product is available with capacities ranging from 40 kW to 140 kW.
Vireo Ventues Managing Partner Felix Krause speaks with pv magazine about solar-related investments in the startup landscape.
The Fraunhofer ISE has designed a novel method for assessing the potential of low-temperature heat sources for large-scale heat pumps. The five-step process was tested on the German city of Fellbach, enabling the identification of heat sources with LCOH lower than €0.1/kWh.
Frost & Sullivan says the future of the global heat pump market hinges on clear policies and supportive regulations, following a growth slowdown in recent years.
UL Solutions says it will expand heat pump testing at its facilities in Texas and Italy to meet rising demand in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industry.
A new study in Germany shows the advantages of thermal energy storage in the decarbonization of industrial processes. The researchers noted clear cost advantages and high potential for flexibility in the power grid.
