Vahterus Takes Part in Collaborative Research Project to Develop Next-Generation Heat-Pump Solutions

Vahterus’ experience in refrigeration and heat-pump systems is far-reaching. However, the demand for heat pumps has increased dramatically in recent years and more research and development is needed within the field. There is a need for higher temperatures, and new refrigerants are being introduced into improved systems.

This year, Vahterus takes part in a collaborative research project to develop next-generation heat-pump solutions together with LUT University and a number of other Finnish industrial partners and organisations (Yaskawa Environ mental Energy / The Switch, Fincoil LU-VE, Suomen Tekojää, Nevel, Suur-Savon Sähkö and Suomen lämpöpumppu yhdistys).

Vahterus has been part of the collaboration since summer 2022. The overall aim of the project is to improve the global competitiveness of the Finnish heat pump industry. The two-year research project is funded by Business Finland.
