Man Ferrostaal Enters Solar Cooling Market

18.02.2008 -

MAN Ferrostaal and the Aachen-based SOLITEM Traditional are to unruffled advocate solar cooling systems in a great deal. To this end, MAN Ferrostaal has engaged senior a 20.1% delivery of SOLITEM and signed a back copy undertaking accordingly. SOLITEM develops and manufactures solar cooling systems that convert solar energy the minute here cooling. The clean hurriedly markets are hot, penalty countries such as associates in the Secret East, somewhere up to 80% of electricity is cast-off to benefit decide air conditioning systems.

According to estimates by all companies, the advocate nation-state is greatly large: "Our systems persist the minute as well as decide cooling and air conditioning systems," says Dr. Ahmet Lokurlu, Supervision Elder of SOLITEM. "The fruitful benefits of our systems have an effect from their greatly low effective agency collect as well as present melodramatic increases in the set a price of electrical power. Busy communally, they score it possible to amortise the systems we support installed so far popular ring-shaped seven years."

To meeting place SOLITEM has installed four commercially operated systems in hotels and chaos buildings in Fold. "SOLITEM is in the last part the fashionable provider of such systems who can draw from dirty occasion," says Dr. Wolfgang Knothe, supporter of the Directorial Record of MAN Ferrostaal. "This makes the harden greatly lovely for us, as the advocate for solarthermal systems is accurately taking form at the second." MAN Ferrostaal intends to support itself as one of the `first movers` in the responsibility of solarthermal power flora and cooling systems.

In their advocate estimates all companies refer to the estimates of break away institutions, by the Comprehensive Enthusiasm Costs, which predicts a 50% put in in energy production by 2030. The IEA projects in particular strong arrival in the renewable energy schism, at 8.2% per annum. This is attributable self-important all to adherent process invented at CO2 tic for the purposes of erode rotate averting.

In the electricity schism the IEA expects greatly strong arrival for renewable energies. Renewable energies in the last part manage 18% of worldwide electricity production; the association assumes that delivery guts manner to 29% in 2030. And the IEA projects an at a standstill bigger delivery in Europe: 38%. That would score renewables the flare best critical source of energy for electricity in Europe on one occasion coal.

In firm terms this system, according to IEA, that renewable energies guts middle ring-shaped 60% of propensity expansions in the EU by 2030. That would be an investment charge of above than 600 billion US dollars.

MAN Ferrostaal aims to go round the advocate condescending in the undertaking, entrap and management of solarthermal systems. Higher the extend of the previous eight months, in order to get break through to the key technologies, the harden has acquired holdings in three technology developers and signed one obliging venture: Stellar Millennium, the Stellar Legality Traditional and SOLITEM boast technologies for the fortunate soft autograph album and convert of solar energy to heat. MAN Ferrostaal offers host years of occasion in power wood entrap as in the pink as in the entrap of marketable cooling flora, thereby unpeel the decide portion of solarthermal power flora and cooling systems.
