Sectors & industries

Energy efficiency.

Efficiency and cooling-storage solutions applied to energy infrastructure.

Cooling from surplus heat

Cooling can be produced using heat that would otherwise be wasted. APINA designs refrigeration plants for the energy sector based on NH₃-water absorption, fed by waste heat from cogeneration, exhaust-gas recovery or low-pressure steam.

We also offer photovoltaic self-consumption projects and solutions for hot climates where air condensation is not viable. Natural refrigerants (NH₃, CO₂) that meet the European decarbonisation targets.

Applications

Waste heat → cooling

Systems that turn waste heat into refrigeration with almost zero electricity consumption. Cogeneration + absorption = maximum overall COP.

Photovoltaics

PV self-consumption installations combined with refrigeration systems. Lower operating cost and carbon footprint.

Hot climates

Plants for the Middle East, North Africa and Latin America where air condensation is unviable. Proven in Saudi Arabia and Nicaragua.
