A fossil-free future for everyone

Triple Solar is the inventor of the PVT heat pump and the corresponding PVT heat pump panels. The company wants to achieve maximum impact by reducing CO2 emissions when heating homes. To this aim they develop smart solutions in the realm of sustainable energy: produced and used in a sustainable manner, fully recyclable and without environmental impact.

World’s largest PVT installation in London
The University of West London aims to be climate-neutral by 2030 and installed 580 Triple Solar PVT heat pump panels to that end. Which will lead to energy savings of more than 500 tonnes of CO2 per year. The project involved the installation of 580 PVT heat pump panels and other energy efficiency improvements at the four university sites. Obsolete gas boilers were replaced with heat pumps to reduce nitrogen oxide pollution and improve air quality, which together with PVT heat pump panels provide renewable energy. The installation is considered to be the world’s largest PVT installation. The PVT heat pump panels work together with heat pumps to reduce an estimated 500 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year. The system generates enough energy to heat 70 homes or to make millions of cups of tea!

Introduction of the compact Thermal Battery
Very recently Triple Solar introduced its latest innovative product, the Thermal Battery. The energy-efficient Thermal Battery is combined with the Triple Solar PVT heat pump. Compared to a traditional hot water vessel, the Thermal Battery is up to four times smaller and therefore fits in every home. CEO and founder Cees Mager: “Homes are getting increasingly smaller. As a result, there is often no room for a large kettle. The Thermal Battery is so compact that it even fits in a kitchen cabinet.” Unlike electric batteries, a thermal battery does not store electricity, but heat. This stored heat can be used at a later time to make instant hot water. This eliminates the usual storage of hot water in the water tank that causes a lot of heat loss.

PVT heat pump also available on the German market
During the ISH fair in Frankfurt earlier this year, Triple Solar officially launched its unique PVT heat pump on the German market. Founder and CEO Cees Mager: “This is our first official step into the German market, which in terms of numbers is five times larger than the Dutch market. Germany is therefore a very logical choice for us. We will open our own office in Germany in 2023, to support the market introduction.”

The PVT heat pump 3.5 uses the most modern techniques, including the natural refrigerant propane. It also uses the generated electricity very economically. For an all-electric setup the PVT heat pump needs 4 PVT panels as a source; whereas a hybrid setup needs 3 PVT panels.
