General information
- Short Summary
-
A Spanish SME, specialized in renewable energy (hardware developer) offers a modular technology that converts photovoltaic electricity into thermal energy for water-based heating in industrial, infrastructure and remote contexts. Fully autonomous, the system requires no batteries or grid connection. It reduces fossil fuel dependence and simplifies Integration in any hidraulic system.
The company seeks commercial agreements to support distribution and deployment in international markets. - Full Description
-
A Spanish SME specialising in renewable energy hardware has developed a modular thermal system that converts photovoltaic electricity into hot water for low-to-medium temperature applications. Based in Salamanca, the company focuses on decarbonisation hardware for industrial and infrastructure use, with previous experience deploying clean energy systems in off-grid and remote environments.
The technology offered is designed to meet the growing demand for autonomous, low-maintenance thermal energy solutions, especially in areas where grid access is limited or where replacing fossil fuels is a priority. Traditional alternatives such as fuel-based boilers or electric heating with batteries present operational, logistical, or environmental challenges. This solution avoids such constraints by producing heat in real time directly from solar input, without the need for batteries, inverters or combustion systems.
Each unit delivers either 60 kW or 100 kW of thermal power and can be scaled according to site requirements. The system integrates into closed-loop water circuits using resistive elements, and a built-in control unit manages solar energy input based on real-time thermal demand. The design supports full autonomy, with minimal need for user interaction or maintenance.
Target application sectors include industrial processes, rural or mobile infrastructure, public service facilities in remote areas, and off-grid buildings. The solution is also suitable for markets with volatile fuel prices or where energy infrastructure is underdeveloped.
The company is seeking commercial agreements with partners capable of acting as distributors or integrators in their local markets. These partners would promote the system, manage installation and commissioning, and provide basic customer support. The objective is to facilitate international deployment of the technology through collaboration with experienced local actors, able to adapt the system's configuration to sector-specific needs without requiring design modifications. - Advantages and Innovations
-
The system stands out for its ability to convert photovoltaic electricity directly into thermal energy without the need for batteries, inverters, or combustion-based components. This direct and real-time conversion reduces system complexity and eliminates the need for energy storage infrastructure, making it particularly suitable for remote or infrastructure-limited environments.
Unlike conventional heating technologies that depend on fossil fuels or electric resistance powered from the grid or batteries, this solution is fully autonomous and powered only by solar input. Its integrated control unit regulates thermal output dynamically, adapting to real-time solar availability and heating demand, which increases efficiency and extends the operational life of the system.
The system’s modularity allows units of 60 kW or 100 kW to be installed individually or in parallel, offering flexible scalability for small and large installations. Integration into standard hydraulic circuits is straightforward, and the system operates as a preheating or standalone heat source depending on site configuration.
In comparison to other thermal systems on the market, the advantages include:
• Autonomous solar-to-heat conversion with no need for electrical storage or grid connection.
• Simplified system architecture: fewer components, less maintenance.
• Long-term energy cost predictability (~0.05 €/kWh over 20 years).
• High compatibility with existing water-based heating infrastructure.
• No emissions, no fuel transport or storage requirements.
• Minimal installation footprint and adaptability to remote or mobile settings.
These combined features position the technology as a robust and cost-effective alternative for industrial and infrastructure applications where reliability, simplicity, and autonomy are critical. - Stage of Development

Partner Sought
- Expected Role of a Partner
-
Type of partner: The company is looking for commercial partners such as energy integrators, engineering firms, HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) installers, infrastructure contractors, or renewable energy distributors. Target sectors include industrial energy systems, agro-processing, rural infrastructure, logistics, and public service facilities requiring autonomous thermal energy supply. Entities should have experience working with hydraulic systems or renewable energy installations and be actively involved in deploying energy solutions in their regional or national markets.
Role of the partner: The partner is expected to incorporate the modular photovoltaic-to-thermal system into its commercial offer, acting as a distributor, reseller, or system integrator depending on its capabilities. Key responsibilities include:
• Identifying suitable application sites or clients in relevant sectors.
• Managing installation and configuration based on local needs and standards.
• Providing first-line customer support and basic training where applicable.
• Ensuring compliance with local regulations for deployment.
• Supporting long-term adoption of the technology through marketing, procurement and operational follow-up.
The ideal partner will have technical-commercial capacity to operate autonomously and serve as a bridge between the technology provider and end users in new international markets. - Type and Size of Partner
