It looks relatively simple, but the prerequisite for the current stage has required a course of development of more than 40 years, which tells a story of efforts far beyond the ordinary.
The EU has put the supply of cooling and heating to European Union citizens on equal footing with effect from October, 2018.
Previously, it only applied to the supply of heat, but increasing global warming means that the supply of cooling is given the same priority.
The new EU legal requirement coincides with the fact that the need for safe, efficient and energy-neutral cooling has never been greater. The global phase-out of chemical refrigerants means that water as a refrigerant has become an area predicted with great growth potential.
STAC Technology has patented various processes where water is used as both propellant and refrigerant. STAC is focused on a commercial product during 2024 in collaboration with international partners who are world leaders in mechanical design of various components for our process plants.
The thermodynamic processes on which STAC's technology is based have been tested, among others at LEGO, which for several decades used a 2 MW system for cooling based on Gunnar Mind's design, which was awarded the European Commission's Environment Award in 1996
