The UK-based manufacturer, EnviraBoard, has commenced construction work on its first mini production plant in Fårevejle near Copenhagen. It is hoped that the mini plant will be fully operational by approximately the middle of 2025, and the business will use this R&D site to demonstrate the production process and to produce short runs of sample products for testing. Using proven Danish technology (IP acquired) EnviraBoard utilises recycled paper sludge waste as the raw material for its sustainable building boards, which are aptly named “EnviraBoards”. This recycled paper sludge, which is a secondary waste material from production of recycled paper, that would usually [...]

The cold energy storage business, Organic Heat Exchangers (O-Hx) has secured an agreement with a UK-based vertical farm to trial its revolutionary EnergiVault® - a trademarked/patented, cold thermal energy storage battery and charger system that provides dynamic cooling power for industrial refrigeration.The purpose of the six-month trial is to test and demonstrate EnergiVault® on the vertical farm’s environmental control system, assessing its value as part of the growing system’s performance, environmental quality control, and economics. The vertical farm offers fully automated controlled environment agriculture (CEA) platforms and the technology behind them helps growers optimise resource efficiency. The CTO at the vertical farm [...]

Thermal energy storage experts at the UK-based company, Organic Heat Exchangers, are set to revolutionise global industrial cooling with the launch of EnergiVault® - a trademarked/patented, cold thermal energy storage battery and charger system providing dynamic cooling power for industrial refrigeration. 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? EnergiVault has an enhanced AI-based control to optimise cooling assets, energy, and carbon savings and resilience. The technology collects real-time ambient climate and operational [...]
