Let's make every kilowatt count! As the need for power grows to support technology growth, it's key to find untapped energy efficiency sources. Data center backup gensets retrofit with Hotstart High Efficiency Heat Pumps can reduce the often overlooked power draw from existing engine heaters. With 20,000 - 40,000 kWhs saved annually with each heat pump, data centers with gensets in the hundreds can free up megawatts of energy quickly for use in other ways. Contact us at heatpumps@hotstart.com to learn more about high efficiency heat pumps on data center gensets. #EnergyEfficientEngineHeating #sustainability #GensetHeatPump #decarbonization https://lnkd.in/gSts-Dn5

Never stop learning. That's what continuous improvement is all about - learning how to improve. Thanks Mike for sharing with the Production and Manufacturing Institute students and Dr. Wade M. Larson what it takes to do things better. #continuousimprovement #manufacturing #lifelonglearning

Thank you to Michael Abbott from HOTSTART for spending time with the Production and Manufacturing Institute to talk about continuous improvement. It's important to not only design and make products...but to do it better. HOW WE DO ANYTHING IS HOW WE DO EVERYTHING... That is one of our core values of the Institute. We try to instill the value that we need to always find ways to work better, cheaper, and faster to create a competitive advantage...but none of them can override the "better" (quality). We appreciate all the support from our sponsors and help that comes in from the manufacturing community. Thanks again, Mike, for your help yesterday!

It was a great way to close out June by making connections and providing solutions to the attendees of G-Power Shanghai. Our team had the opportunity to share the latest engine heating technology for the power generation market, highlighting the EVR20 and other energy efficient heating solutions for engines ranging from 20-100 liters in size. Thanks everyone for joining us at the show! #powergeneration #GPowerShangahi #engineheating #energyefficientengineheating

We're excited to see partners like Power Control & Automation Solutions Ltd (PCAS) include the CVC High Efficiency Heat Pump in their offerings to end-users needing to reduce the energy draw related to genset engine heating. Thanks Stuart Turner for the opportunity. Can't wait to see the heaters installed and saving energy! #EnergyEfficientEngineHeating #PowerGeneration #HighEfficiencyHeatPump #genset
Time to go Out Out for the next two generators for delivery. Where been quite clever with the heaters on these units thanks to HOTSTART and ANDREW WHITEHOUSE for supplying these I’m looking forward to installing them on a local hospital and providing them some cost saving over the years with an intelligent fail over written and designed in PLC. Oh and a couple of ComAp Group controllers in build for the same project. Busy week again 😅😅😅 Two 1500kvas out for delivery Two 1250kvas being mechanically installed And working alongside an international BESS manufacturers there units to deliver another hybrid application for an airport in the south. Get me my commissioning boots on time to show the younger engineers how to integrate and enjoy engineering. Fully synchro bus tie and a clever N+1 solution with some nice tweaks to the SCADA and the charging system for the substation. #powergeneration #innovationindesign #firstofakind #criticalpower #design #engineering #mitsubishi #comAp #hotstart

Opportunities for energy efficient genset engine heating come in all buildings and environments. A recent installation featured below shows how an outside generator can still benefit from a retrofit of the HE High Efficiency Heat Pump when the heater is installed remotely inside the nearby facility. Visit our website to learn more about how gensets 1MW and larger can stay heated while saving up to 75% in energy. https://lnkd.in/gBJWyM4g #highefficiencygensetheating #hotstartheatpump #sustainability #energyefficiency
Thank you Mike Sciaraffa CommonWealth Electrical for a great remote installation of the HE heat pump at the City of Melrose, MA.

Opportunities for improving building efficiency can be found in unexpected places. Download this case study from CLEAResult detailing how retrofitting backup generators with Hotstart high efficiency heat pumps for engine heating reduces annual kilowatt draw and energy costs by up to 75%. Just one more item to check on building efficiency audit lists! https://lnkd.in/gTAF6xZm
