Energy-efficient hall heating renovation is a dena lighthouse project
October 27, 2023
How to save 3.7 million kWh - almost 70 percent! - energy can be saved? This is demonstrated by the joint project of hall heating specialist KÜBLER and Höganäs Germany GmbH (formerly H.C. Starck) at the Laufenburg site near the Swiss border.
For dena, this is a flagship project, which the German Energy Agency has published on its new website as an example of good practice and which you can find under this link: Laufenburg Kübler - Energy Efficiency Award
The major energy refurbishment at Höganäs is extraordinary - in more ways than one. The scope, complexity and ultimately the results alone are impressive. The aim of the energy refurbishment measure was the technical conversion of the entire plant to a modern, decentralized, IR heat supply. A total of seven building areas covering a total area of almost 12,000 square meters were affected.
The entire site is now heated with energy-saving KÜBLER technology. In areas of the complex building stock with special requirements, such as low floor heights and interior rooms, additional heating and ventilation technologies were implemented.
The new heating system integrates all heat flows in the halls, including the existing heat recovery from the compressor system.
The entire system is controlled, monitored and analyzed via the KÜBLER CELESTRA control system and the EMMA heat management module. Gas meters and electricity consumption are recorded and evaluated there, with special interfaces programmed by KÜBLER.
KÜBLER implemented the heating project including financing through the HeizWerk rental concept, which meant that no investment costs were incurred. The combined rental and consumption costs are lower than the previous energy costs, which makes the project economical. The innovative rental model enables energy-efficient heating even on a tight budget. The measures have saved 3.7 million kWh of energy, or around 70 %, which represents a significant contribution to the energy transition.
We look forward to your publication!

Green members of the state parliament Dr. Bernhard Braun and Fabian Ehmann at KÜBLER in LudwigshafenLudwigshafen, August 2022 - An important visit to KÜBLER in Ludwigshafen: Dr. Bernhard Braun (Chairman of the Bündnis90/Grünen parliamentary group), Fabian Ehmann (Spokesman for Economy & Start-ups, Europe & One World, Youth and Forest Policy) and Hanna Thiele (personal assistant) met with the Ludwigshafen-based hall heating specialist and hidden champion in the Palatinate. They discussed the currently highly topical issues of the energy transition, energy efficiency, legislation and the questions: "What distinguishes halls from residential buildings, offices or daycare centers? And why do they need special technologies for efficient and low-CO2 heating?"
At the BVMUV's Future Day for SMEs on March 13, KÜBLER, the specialist for climate-friendly hall heating systems, presents the first results of the joint AI pilot project as part of the Green-AI Hub Mittelstand to Federal Environment Minister Steffi Lemke.
The company had set the highest energy efficiency standards for its new building. Initially, the new production building was to be heated by a combination of heat pump and underfloor heating, but this proved to be less functional in hall buildings. The decision was made to use the completely new energy-flexible infrared system FUTURA from KÜBLER - as a pilot project. "With many of our projects, we ourselves are entering [...]
