This case study presents how boostHEAT merged two heating technologies: the boiler and the heat pump. The fusion was performed using an original patented thermal compression system. The calorific value of the fuel is used not to power the heating system, but to compress the CO₂ refrigerant used in the heat pump cycle. The anticipated reduction in consumption levels is 45-60% for low temperature boilers (35°C), 25-40% for high temperature boilers (55-65°C). The first prototype has been designed to provide a rated power of 10kW and run for 50,000 hours (15 years) without requiring maintenance. boostHEAT also analyses an innovative new business model to push the technology to market.
