Project

Especially in schools, rooms are used during repeated time periods, while they are empty during weekends and school vacations – but the heating remains turned on. We partnered with ENTEGA and installed our digital thermostats in a school in Hessian Odenwaldkreis to improve this situation and to save Co2 emissions. It is the goal to reduce heat consumption and to heat the classrooms only when they are being used.

Results

„In total, 150 of the smart control were installed in the TLS. They support our county in its efforts to protect the climate and to use resources efficiently”, explains school department representative Oliver Grobeis together with Frank Slawik, who is responsible for energy controlling for the county-owned buildings. The school required over 800,000 kWh heat in 2019. In the years prior, the heat demand was in part even higher. Savings of 30-40% are expected, which will reduce the school’s Co2-emissions by up to 40 tons per year.

For its modern energy concept, vilisto, together with the Odenwaldkreis and ENTEGA, was awarded the Hessian State Prize for Innovative Energy Solutions. With the help of the prize money, further buildings in the district are to be equipped with our digital heat management system to improve their heat balance.

What our customers say:

Together with the vilisto team, we have already converted several municipal properties in southern Hesse. We are pleased that we can contribute to climate protection in the municipalities with the use of the smart radiator thermostats.
