ProspectSV kicked off two California Energy Commission-funded technology demonstration projects this Summer. The projects will showcase two distinct applications of Flow Environmental Systems’ ANSWR CO2 heat pump: (1) simultaneous heating, cooling, and domestic hot water production at Berkeley Lab’s FLEXLAB testbed facility for large commercial buildings, and (2) low and medium temperature refrigeration with advanced defrost controls and thermal storage for commercial cold storage at Straus Family Creamery. Learn more about these new efforts, including our plans for conducting each demonstration and how we hope to translate findings across the industry.
