MG has been awarded a grant from CET Partnership joint call 2024, consisting of 7 partners from Germany, Sweden, and Belgium. The overall aim of the project BREAD is the development of a sub-Megawatt (MW) scale heating and cooling system that will provide heat at temperatures above 250 °C and cooling around 0 °C and below. It will smartly integrate heat pump, heat exchanger and heat storage technology.
BREAD proposed technology
The project BREAD addresses the development of a sub-Megawatt (MW) scale heating and cooling system that will provide heat at temperatures above 250 °C (up to 400 °C) and cooling around 0 °C and below. It will smartly integrate heat pump, heat exchanger and heat storage technology. In the future, green electricity will play a significant role as a “primary” energy source for industries, and new innovations are needed to accomplish the transformation of industrial electrification. BREAD has ambition to go beyond state-of-the-art in the following fields:
– Reversed Brayton Cycle Heat Pump for Sub-MW-range (from TRL3 to TRL5)
– Compressor/Expander (Turbomachine) (from TRL3 to TRL5)
– High-Temperature and Low-Temperature Thermal Energy Storage (from TRL3 to TRL5)
