Air-Cooled Chiller
Tecogen had launched Tecochill Hybrid-Drive Air-Cooled Chiller at the AHR Expo, Atlanta 2023. The chiller works with the combined power of natural gas & electricity from the grid. The chiller can also work on the natural gas
powered engine when the electric power supply is unavailable. The product can maximise greenhouse gas reductions by using power from the electric grid when the grid gradually is powered by renewable energy and can switch to engine power when the grid is generating higher greenhouse gas emissions.
The hybrid-drive can track inputs from the electric power grid to enable customers to optimise economic savings and greenhouse gas reductions. When the Hybrid-Drive is powered by the chiller’s integral natural gas engine, it produces chilled water for air conditioning as well as engine heat that is recovered to produce usable hot water. The hybrid-drive can be a perfect fit for applications such as controlled environment agriculture, healthcare, education, chiller rental, and industrial process cooling. Upto 50 per cent lower operation cost and flexibility of working on two power sources are the key highlights and can prove a game changer in the market.
