Decentralized Electric Heating
Description
How do we want to heat in the future? We will have to switch to sustainable and renewable energy sources, as fossil fuels do not offer a long-term perspective. Furthermore, conventional heating systems with complex infrastructure can only insufficiently meet individual heating needs. The project Hotspot explores the possibilities of decentralized, electricity-based heating. By creating smaller heat zones in the room, heating is both more comfortable and more efficient. The product family includes a heating panel for large-area heating and mobile, modular heat storage units for heating close to the body. The objects are able to respond flexibly to individual heating requirements and fit seamlessly into living environments.
