The so-called autarky boiler is now available in three sizes from Timo Leukefeld. Thanks to the ingenious technical concept, it also saves landlords time and money, as the decentralised boiler eliminates the obligation to monitor for legionella.
More than 2,000 parabolic mirrors generate the heat Avery Dennison needs for the production of pressure-sensitive adhesive products. A storage unit and a control platform ensure that the solar heat is available at all times.
PV Guided Tours: Homeowners can use almost all of the solar power from their roof themselves, Smartfox promises. This works with the help of the intelligent energy manager, which is also compatible with devices from other manufacturers to integrate heat pumps and charging stations. Now the manufacturer from Austria is entering the German market. Why explains Managing Director Matthias Fischbacher.
To meet the increased demand for electric heating rods and power controllers for solar electric heating, My-PV has moved into a new production building. The entire production facility is ergonomically equipped - and future expansion is also possible.
