Viessmann to showcase pioneering fuel cell system at Ecobuild

Comprising a fuel cell unit, peak load boiler and hot water tank, Viessmann – which is celebrating 25 years in the UK in 2014 – says the system reduces CO2 emissions by 50 per cent compared to the separate generation of heat and power.

Several other new products across the Viessmann range will be showcased at Ecobuild: the new version of the solar tube display, the Vitosol 200-T, has wider, but fewer tubes for greater efficiency and for reducing installation time and the risk of breakages.

Ecobuild will also mark the launch of Vitoflow, a software and hardware system which supports automated hydraulic balancing of radiator circuits, increasing the heating system efficiency by up to 15%. The technology works with all Vitotronic 200 controlled heat generators up to 150 kW.

Products from Viessmann’s established range will be at the show, including the Vitobloc 200 EM5, a CHP unit for direct and indirect space heating and instantaneous hot water generation, the Vitodens 100-W, 111-W and 200-W popular wall hung gas fired condensing boilers, the Vitocell 300-B hot water cylinder, the Vitosol 200-F solar thermal flat panel and the Vitocal 200-S split air source heat pump.

As the diversity of its exhibits at Ecobuild demonstrates, Viessmann UK prides itself on its comprehensive range of individual solutions for energy efficient systems. It’s also a persistent champion of sustainability, running its highly successful Efficiency Plus project at its manufacturing facilities in Allendorf, Germany, to demonstrate how any business or household can actively promote climate protection and reduce their energy bills. The project has already saved 66% of fossil energy use and cut CO2 emissions by 80%.

Viessmann are represented in the UK by Viessmann Ltd and in Ireland by Precision Heating.
