Kaiserslautern. Heating and lighting industrial and commercial buildings in a climate-neutral way - that is "excellent", according to the jury of the state of Rhineland-Palatinate, which awarded the prestigious innovation prize to KÜBLER GmbH from Ludwigshafen. With this award, the state honours the immediately implementable and economical contribution to decarbonization in industrial heat supply through the FUTURA multi-energy system. KÜBLER GmbH has been developing heating systems for halls for more than three decades, employs 130 people and has built up proven expertise with its own R&D unit. This is already the fourth innovation award in the company's history.
"The energy transition needs realistically feasible and affordable solutions",
says Thomas KÜBLER, expert in hall heating technologies and founder of KÜBLER GmbH. One such solution is the latest development from the Ludwigshafen-based company - called FUTURA. The innovative infrared hall heating system integrates LED hall lighting in a single device. Above all, however, it enables the economical path to CO2-This world first can be operated - in mixed or mono mode - with renewable or established energy sources. An important contribution to climate protection, which the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Transport, Agriculture and Viticulture awarded the Rhineland-Palatinate Innovation Prize on Friday as the winner in the "Craft" category.
FUTURA is a highly efficient, multi-energy carrier-capable, fully digitalized infrared heating system for CO2-neutral heat supply for industrial and other hall buildings. Regardless of whether green hydrogen or electricity determines the future: FUTURA can do both. The multi-energy IR heating system can also use biogas, (biogenic) liquid gas or natural gas and allows variable switching between the energy sources depending on availability. This balances out the volatility of renewable energies and thus ensures operational reliability.
"FUTURA is the investment-safe hall heating solution for the entire transformation path of decarbonization - from today to beyond 2045."
