A smart decentralized energy system for heating and cooling has moved into the digital hospital
Enabling the sharing and reusing of energy, E.ON ectogrid™’s solution constitutes a more sustainable energy system, adding to a green transition of energy supply in city quarters and dense communities (like hospitals).
"The system can share and reuse heating and cooling between buildings in a hospital area. It recycles energy for as long as possible and only adds new external energy after all existing internal energy streams have been exhausted. By doing so, it decreases the hospital’s energy cost and lowers the environmental footprint.
In some cases, the need for external energy has been reduced by 60% using E.ON ectogrid™. The temperatures in the system are lowered to the range of the earth’s temperatures, thus increasing safety in hospital areas and – since the system is bi-directional – there is only need for two pipes in the ground, taking up less space in densely built hospital areas."
