5th Generation Heating and Cooling
 

5GDHC is a new, innovative solution for heating and cooling the built environment.

These systems use residual energy from various sources, with low-grade energy being used in a decentralised and demand-driven manner. Through smart integration and local use of energy flows, 5GDHC guarantees a fully sustainable approach.

Why 5GDHC? 

Primary energy savings

5GDHC has significant primary energy savings, significantly more efficient than individual air source heat pumps.

Reducing grid congestion

5GDHC reduces electricity use during peak times, reducing grid congestion.

Guaranteed independence

5GDHC guarantees independence from fluctuating external factors such as the price of gas and electricity, ensuring stable and predictable costs.

Our approach

Development phase

The development phase of a heating network is complex with many stakeholders and in a frequently changing environment.

We are integral experts and take all aspects (regulations, technology, financing, governance, participation, scalability, affordability) into account, in structuring, planning and organizing the most efficient local solution, and in close cooperation with the local parties.

Realisation phase

Our fast turnaround times set us apart: pre-financing allows us to start construction quickly. This, combined with our advanced project management and technical expertise, ensures an efficient and precise realization.

In addition, our focus is on transparent cooperation with all parties involved, from contractors to end users.

Operating phase

In the operating phase, our focus is on optimisation and sustainable management. We go beyond traditional network management by continuously investing in the monitoring and customization of the system to ensure maximum efficiency and minimum disruption. We are ready with a 24/7 support team to ensure that our customers can always count on reliable and effective management of their heating and cooling supply.
