Report by an independent expert on the potential contribution of the Wasserkabel system to the reduction of CO2 emissions
In August, the company also received a report from SIA “Ekodoma”, an independent expert in the field of energy efficiency, and in its conclusions it is stated that: “By using the Wasserkabel system, the amount of CO2 emitted is 3.25 kgCO2/m2 less (per year) compared to classic floor heating systems and 5.9 kgCO2/m2 less (per year) compared to the radiator system.” This confirms the benefits of the Wasserkabel system as a “green” technology and its potential future contribution to reducing CO2 emissions.
