Of the total global energy end usage 50 % are accountable for the consumption of heating energy, yet mostly still based on fossil fuels. Among other technologies, heat pumps are a possibility to electrify the heat generation. Like chillers, compression heat pumps transfer heat from a lower to a higher temperature level. Based on high-pressure reciprocating as well as screw compressors, GEA offers a wide range of heat pumps: from small to mid-sized standard lines to large, customized solutions generating up to 10 Megawatts with one single unit.

The latest addition is a highly efficient reciprocating compressor heat pumps setting new benchmarks in the industry. ...
