The first interest of improving energy systems came up in the early 2000 when Walter Neuenschwander met Martin Froidevaux at environmental technologies at EPFL university in Lausanne. They realized the gigentic potential of energy savings, how desparate the offer of because of low price of oil and poor regulation systems. After gathering differents research experiences & industial know how in heating, electronics & communcation, they started a couple of heat recovery projects. At that time, Chritoph Walker join the team and enhanced the activity through implematation of an energy managment system in his house, so call KNX
Thanks the PV boom, the establishment of the company could be financed in 2012. Differents products would be tryed & selected separately. The second part of developpment was offering Heating system for homes. First only heat production would be installed like gas boiler or heatpump of course assisted by solar plant. Then the compagny got experience with heat distribution like floor or wall heating http://wem-wandheizung.ch/
Ongoing projets
Solar thermie & solar photovoltaic are two twilling brother that act the best together, because the first take out the heat to improve electrical production, while the PV current feeds the pumps of the thermal circuit and prevent daedly burns out. We can deliver such installation called hybrid modules. http://pvsystems.meyerburger.com/en/products/hybrid/
Visions
Autarky ! In remoted area where you can’t secure a constant energy supply, Solar driven systems offer the chance of driving any activity according to a smart energy managment. Soon the new batterie Generation should enhance theses system. We are proud of developping such a system for a Guesthouse in the Palmeraie of Marrakech (Morroco)
