CO2 Heat Pump

CO2 Heat Pump

The VEHTEC CO₂ Heat Pump replaces diesel preheaters and generates up to 50% energy savings compared to fossil fuel systems.

With VEHTEC CO₂ Heat Pump for heating and cooling during operation, the dependency on electricity supply is also reduced, thereby increasing the driving range for electric buses with reduced operating costs. VEHTEC CO₂ Heat pump can operate efficiently with high performance even in cold climates down to -20 °C. In combination with solar panels on bus rooftops, the electrical power dependency can be reduced even more.
