For high-demand cooling applications, such as data centres, industrial facilities, andhospitals, absolute cooling resilience is critical. A 1MW water chiller running for one hour requires a significant power supply, typicallybacked by large lithium-ion battery banks, adding substantial costs and complexity. For O-Hx, we compared the cost and performance of 1MW of absolute cooling for one hourusing: Traditional 1MW water chiller + battery storage EnergiVault thermal energy storage (TES) Our analysis shows that EnergiVault offers a far more cost-effective and efficient solution,saving up to £940,000 compared to a traditional battery-backed chiller system.

Read MoreO-Hx has invented a new kind of binary ice using an organic heat exchanger. This has then been incorporated into its proprietary 1 MWh cold thermal energy storage (CTES) battery and charger, the EnergiVault®. This first-of-its-kind, AI-driven technology has been developed to enhance operational resilience, reduce energy costs and lower carbon emissions for facilities that use water chillers to deliver their cooling requirements. So how exactly is AI supporting the development of EnergiVault?

Read MoreWhilst the Covid-19 pandemic had an impact on the PAPA One business plan, the greatest obstacle to its progress has been Mexican President, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador’s, regressive and stymying approach towards the energy sector. The experienced team at PAPA One has operated in many challenging environments with government interventions both positive and negative, mainly focused on subsidies or initiatives, but has never been confronted by a government so determined to halt all private and international business activity in such a key sector. And PAPA One is not alone. Some of the largest international power companies and solar developers have had [...]
Read MoreOrganic Heat Exchangers (O-Hx) is to demonstrate the benefits of its cold thermal energy storage solution at a global health care company’s UK manufacturing site. Read the news in Cooling Post.
Read MoreOrganic Heat Exchangers (O-Hx) has secured a letter of intent from Organon Pharma (UK) to demonstrate the benefits of its patented EnergiVault® system, a revolutionary cold thermal energy storage solution, at Organon’s manufacturing site in Cramlington, UK. This agreement marks an important step towards evaluating the system’s potential for wider application. During a three-month trial period, O-Hx and Organon will collaborate to install an EnergiVault® demonstration system within Organon’s chilled water infrastructure. This initiative will verify how EnergiVault® can enhance chiller efficiency during winter and transitional seasons, improve thermal capacity and resilience during summer peak demands, and better integrate renewable energy assets [...]
Read MoreWe're excited to finally see some main stream media coverage highlighting the significant developments in cold fusion, or low energy nuclear reactions (LENR). Thanks to Brian Josephson, Emeritus professor of physics at University of Cambridge, who took the initiative and wrote to The Guardian newspaper on the topic. His letter has now been published online and in the paper. We're pleased to say that his letter is also co-signed by several leading industry figures spread across the globe including David J Nagel, Research professor, George Washington University; Alan Smith, International Society for Condensed Matter Nuclear Science; Dr Jean-Paul Biberian, Honorary [...]
Read MoreBy Valeria Tyutina, CEO at ENG8 As we set our sights on 2025, an energy production process called catalysed fusion, which is based on low energy nuclear reaction (LENR) pathways, is on the cusp of a significant breakthrough. This emerging technology is rapidly gaining momentum, with companies and research initiatives transitioning from lab scale to tangible, scalable, commercial energy solutions. The USA, Japan and the European Union already have multi-million dollar funded LENR programs. The key factor in the success of an energy production process is the cost per unit of energy which can be expressed in $ per kilowatts or megawatts. [...]
Read MorePowering the future with catalysed fusion. Join us for a live demonstration of the ENG8 EnergiCell® from the laboratory in Portugal today at 4pm (UK time). ENG8’s self-powering LENR (low energy nuclear reactions) EnergiCells have the potential to decentralise energy generation, decarbonise the economy, and slash energy prices. It’s not just a product; it’s a transformative shift towards a cleaner, more sustainable energy landscape and a fairer world.
