Refrigeration technology for the future: a pioneer in carbon neutrality
Acting sustainably helps us secure the future of our planet. In particular, energy-intensive industries – among them the refrigeration technology industry – need to contribute towards more sustainability. Chillers are essential here, as they are distinguished by high energy efficiency and low carbon emissions. We at ENGIE Refrigeration are aware of this important task: we are working steadily and with focus to offer our customers the highest-quality, most efficient and most sustainable solutions for their refrigeration and heat generation. Our aspiration: ENGIE Refrigeration wants to lead the way in the industry when it comes to carbon-neutral technologies.
We at ENGIE have dedicated ourselves to the mission of ‘zero carbon transition as a service’. Our most important strategic aim is to help our customers optimise their carbon footprint with low-carbon technologies and services. We at ENGIE Refrigeration are certain that energy-intensive industries in particular – which also include air conditioning and refrigeration technology – have a special responsibility when it comes to realising eco-friendly and sustainable products. We are facing up to this task. That is why we have focussed for many years on making it a reality – with success. Our company produces and sells chillers and heat pumps that, in comparison to many other models on the market, are highly energy-efficient and low-carbon, and thus especially eco-friendly: from the Amonum, the PENSUM Air and the QUANTUM Air to our thermeco2 high-temperature heat pumps.
Refrigeration technology from ENGIE: our contribution towards energy efficiency and sustainability
But what is it that makes our individual models so efficient and thus sustainable? And for which respective purposes and industries are they suitable? Starting now, we will report on this matter continuously in our CoolDown magazine – under the motto of ‘leading the zero carbon transition’. Because there is one thing that our chillers definitely have in common: in terms of carbon emissions, they raise the refrigeration technology used by our customers for all types of application to a new level.

Refrigerants with a future: Mastering the F-Gas Regulation sustainably thanks to ENGIE Refrigeration
By 2030, the European Union aims to reduce emissions of fluorinated greenhouse gases by 70 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent to 35 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent compared to 1990. The F-Gas Regulation makes a key contribution to this by incentivising the use of alternative refrigerants and requiring those responsible to develop new strategies for the cooling and heating supply of tomorrow. Jörn Stiegelmeier, Head of Technology and Development at ENGIE Refrigeration, knows the legal situation very well, not least through his association work at the Bundesindustrieverband Technische Gebäudeausrüstung e. V. (BTGA), and points out future-proof perspectives.

Ten in one: QUANTUM chiller and SPECTRUM heat pump provide pioneering momentum for data centres
Digitisation is one of the economic megatrends of our age. Most businesses are reliant on smooth-running information technology (IT) – and thus on data centres, the IT all-rounder. But how can a sensitive digital infrastructure be operated as safely, efficiently and sustainably as possible? With its QUANTUM chiller and SPECTRUM heat pump, ENGIE Refrigeration now takes care of ten local data centres belonging to a German provider – and is breaking new ground for the IT industry in the process.
TEWI value in focus: Climate neutrality through energy efficiency
Due to their environmental impact, refrigeration systems and heat pumps have faced increased scrutiny from environmental organisations, governments and the public for some time. Debate has centred on the greenhouse effect of refrigerants, not least because of planned amendments to the F-Gas Regulation, which will make it more stringent. However, the climate relevance of chillers and heat pumps can only be properly assessed with the help of an ecological balance sheet that includes the entire greenhouse effect of the systems. One popular method of holistic ecological assessment is provided by the TEWI value.
