KÜBLER and Eickhoff - nominated for dena's Energy Efficiency Award!
October 27, 2023
"Achieving more together! Energy services as enablers of the energy transition" - this is the motto under which the heating refurbishment of Eickhoff Maschinenbau GmbH with highly efficient infrared hall heaters from KÜBLER was convincing: the jury of the Energy Efficiency Award nominated the joint large-scale project on the Eickhoff company premises in Bochum for the coveted award of the German Energy Agency dena.
The large-scale project is characterized by several advantages:
- Energy consumption has been reduced by 55 %
- 1,359 tons of CO₂ are saved annually
- Energy costs fell by 60 %
- and there were no investment costs for renting a smart heating system from KÜBLER HeizWerk.
The heating appliances in the MAXIMA range can also be retrofitted for electric operation (MAXIMA E-Hybrid).
The new technology consists of high-efficiency IR hall heating systems from KÜBLER's MAXIMA line and condensing technology for using waste heat to heat domestic hot water, in particular from compressors (KÜBLER H.Y.B.R.I.D.). In addition, there was a connection to the district heating system (office building) and a condensing gas boiler for peak load and reserve. Additional measures included the CELESTRA digital heating control system, the EMMA energy management system and the replacement of electrical, gas and water pipes. Other parts of the plant that were previously heated with district heating (high-bay warehouse) and one hall were also equipped with IR technology.
The infrared heating was implemented as a rental solution (HeizWerk). The result after the first complete heating period: With energy savings of 55 %, energy costs were reduced by around 60 %.
And what's next for the Energy Efficiency Award? The award will be presented at the dena Energy Transition Conference on November 13.

High halls - high energy consumption. It's worth taking a closer look. If you want to know where energy is being wasted, you need transparency. A clear view of whether and where heat is being wasted and thus causing unnecessarily high costs and emissions. By leaving hall doors open for too long, for example. By heating unused hall areas. Or through suboptimal heating times. A smart tool from the hall heating specialist KÜBLER now provides clarity: the EMMA heat management system, which ensures reduced costs, less CO₂ and greater efficiency in industrial heating processes. -
Energy savings of up to 70 % - with these values, KÜBLER heating systems are perhaps one of the most effective levers for reducing primary energy consumption, CO₂ emissions and costs in the hall sector. Depending on the project, this can amount to annual savings of €300,000 and more. A sum that can be used for design. Because it offers financial freedom. For architectural innovations. For further beneficial measures on the building structure. The innovation leader presented its latest developments at ISH 2019 in Frankfurt. -
Ludwigshafen, August 2022: As the energy policy spokesman for the Green Party parliamentary group in Rhineland-Palatinate, Fabian Ehmann has KÜBLER on the agenda for his summer trip. Together with his party colleagues from Ludwigshafen, Hans-Uwe Daumann (parliamentary group chairman and supervisory board member of TWL), Regina Keßler (board member) and Diethelm Messinger (treasurer), he visited the Ludwigshafen-based hall heating specialist to get an idea of the latest developments for the climate-friendly heating of industrial and commercial halls. And, of course, the heating law was also on the agenda. -
The old hall heating system consumes too much energy. And it is becoming increasingly unreliable. Good reasons to finally tackle heating modernization and replace the old system with a modern, energy-efficient one. But the expense seems high and is often shied away from. Yet today there are alternative solutions that can also be very interesting from an economic point of view.
