More and more organisations are looking to heat pumps to efficiently supply heating and cooling services for a range of applications. Join the A2EP team for a tour to see this technology in action. Hear first-hand from end-users and technology providers about what is involved with transitioning to heat pump technologies.

During this one-day bus tour we will visit Hardwick's meat processing plant at Kyneton that has installed an industrial heat pump, which is integrated into the existing refrigeration plant. Important features of this project include:

Integration with the refrigeration plant’s oil cooling, desuperheating and condensing systems
Integration with thermal storage
Upgraded electrical capacity
Ammonia based heat pump achieving hot water >75C

Present at the tour will be:

Site project manager - Mark Hardwick
Consultant - Energy and Thermal's Kevin Joyce
Contractor - Hoctor Refrigeration’s James Hoctor & Eujin Tan
Compressor OEM – Mayekawa's - Peter O'Neill
Heat exchanger OEM – Alfa Laval’s Anson John
Electrical system upgrades: PowerCor’s contractor NG Electrical

We will also visit Brimbank Aquatic and Wellness Centre to view their award-winning zero-emissions electrified heating solution, and Energy Smart Water's educational trailer to explore cutting-edge renewable hot water technologies.

The tour will be hosted by A2EP CEO, Jarrod Leak. Lunch and other refreshments will be provided and covered by the tour cost. The tour will also be a great networking opportunity with end-users, suppliers, government, and consultants in attendance.
