Sustainable cooling? We say yes with the FROSTBIT project
Sustainable cooling? We say yes with the FROSTBIT project March 2025 Did you know that in 2019, global greenhouse gas emissions from refrigeration systems equaled the entire carbon footprint of the European Union? With FROSTBIT, a project funded by the EIC – European Innovation Council, we are working to change that! Our goal: to develop […]
Advancing the MAGCCINE project: morphological and chemical characterization of magnetocaloric samples
Advancing the MAGCCINE project: morphological and chemical characterization of magnetocaloric samples March 2025 Our team is continuously working towards revolutionizing vaccine refrigeration with the development of a solid-state magnetic refrigerator. A key step in this journey is the morphological and chemical characterization of magnetocaloric samples, which we are conducting using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and […]

BEYOND: tackling soft faults in HVAC-R
BEYOND: tackling soft faults in HVAC-R January 2025 Soft faults in HVAC-R systems: the invisible energy thieves. These sneaky inefficiencies can silently drain up to 20% more energy and pump out extra emissions. BEYOND is here to fix that with IoT smarts, real-time monitoring, and a touch of innovation. Let’s make cooling systems smarter, greener, […]
First update from the LEMON project
First update from the LEMON project February 2025 A few months into the LEMON project, we are making big steps towards large-scale magnetic cooling. Within work package 1, our team is working on new designs to significantly increase the size (and thus the cooling capacity) of our refrigerant package and to improve the thermal conductivity […]
