Case stories

Joint district heating project for a fossil-free future

Vattenfall’s Hakfort project showcases the largest capacity heat transfer station utilizing brazed plate heat exchangers. This investment of Vattenfall enables the expansion of the Amsterdam district heating grid. In total, the district heating grid will heat up to 290.000 households in Amsterdam by 2040. An unprecedented capacity of 84MW uses SWEP B649 heat exchangers.

SWEP plays major role in innovative Danish district heating project

A former agricultural area in Høje-Taastrup on the outskirts of Copenhagen has been transformed into a thermal energy storage facility. The facility or ‘Heat pit storage’ as it is bestknown, supports the district heating system that serves the Copenhagen metropolitan area. Its purpose is to store district heating from four connected Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plants and three waste to energy plants when it is cheap to produce, then to distribute it when it is expensive to produce.

Delivering efficient water heating solution at Recanto das Cachoeiras National Park

Ecogetec, together with SWEP, are striving to help bring comfort and efficiency to everyone looking for unique travel and leisure experiences throughout Brazil.

Fast heating and cooling of beer wort in brewing applications achieved with SWEP´s brazed plate heat exchangers

Brazil is the third largest beer producer in the world, with an annual production of around 15 billion liters per year. An increase in the number of small craft breweries has boosted this production rate in the last 5 years and SWEP brazed plate heat exchangers have been a big player in brewing applications.

Absolicon solar park heat up Härnösand

Absolicon Solar Collector, a pioneer in the development of sustainable technology, is involved in the development of Sweden’s largest district heating system based on solar concentrating technology. The Högslätten solar thermal park in Härnösand is being built by Absolicon in collaboration with the Swedish Energy Agency and is the first large capacity solar-powered district heating plant in Sweden for 20 years.

SWEP Condensers proven as a durable solution for Air Conditioning system for decades

SWEP BPHEs working as condensers have been installed in an AC system for 26 years – proving the durability power of BPHEs in applications!

Safe, reliable cooling for hydrogen fuel cell systems on commercial vehicles

FAUN is a member of the long-established KIRCHHOFF Group’s Ecotec division, based in Germany. FAUN’s 2000+ employees develop and manufacture dependable refuse collection vehicles (RCVs) and street sweepers. All FAUN vehicles harness innovation and modern technology to ensure they meet the latest technical standards.

Positively impacting cooling during milk production with SWEP brazed plate heat exchangers

Milk production is one of the main economic activities in Brazil and the country is currently the sixth largest producer in the world. This sector is responsible for the production of up to 25 billion liters of milk a year and the product is a large part of the nutritional diet of most Brazilian families. When a more efficient cooling solution was needed during the milk production process, SWEP brazed plate heat exchangers helped make it happen.
