Utilising heat pump technology, all-electric heating is now being provided to the entire site and can deliver simultaneous heating and cooling when required.
Trane Technologies CEO Dave Regnery said: “The installation of the electrified thermal management system at Trane Charmes is an example of the real-world, sustainability-in-action needed to bend the curve on climate change.”
The facility achieved zero waste to landfill in 2012, is fully equipped with LED lighting and is said to have reduced its water consumption by 63% since 2019. The plant’s employees manufacture and test large chillers, heat pumps and rooftop units which help buildings achieve higher efficiency and improved indoor environmental quality. These products are used in commercial buildings such as hospitals, schools, offices and hotels.
