We constantly invest in Innovation and provide new and upgraded products
National co-funded
GreenCo
The project aims to the development of a cogeneration system (production of electricity and thermal energy for exploitation), based on the thermodynamic Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) and used fuel the residual greenhouse biomass.
ORC4SHIP
The project focuses on the development and optimal design of a heat-to-power system based on the organic Rankine cycle (ORC) technology, for recovering the waste heat from the cooling circuit of ships’ engines and converting it into electricity.
MAFCS
The project aims to the construction of an original system that includes the cooling unit and a series of automated control valves (change over valves), which will undertake, in collaboration with the unit, the smooth transition of fuel from HFO to MGO, without interrupting the operation of the ship’s machine.
TRIMAX
The research project TRI-MAX has as main objective the development, construction and experimental assessment in real environment of a thermal engine based on Trilateral Flash Cycle (TFC), which recovers waste heat and converts it into power.
HP4SHIP
The project focuses on the development and optimal design of an innovative high-temperature heat pump aimed at recovering waste heat from a ship's jacket water cooling circuit, upgrading it to temperatures as high as 125 °C to support onboard steam generation to cover heating needs or other services. This project won a SEAL OF EXECELENCE from European Commission.
IE-E
The project aims to create a 20kWe nominal power cycle that will be connected to a biogas ICE and operates at an upper temperature limit slightly lower than the temperature of the cooling water of the ICE (~75-80°C).
European Co-funded
RES4BUILD
This project develops renewable energy-based solutions for decarbonizing the energy used in buildings, tailored to their size, their type and the climatic zones of their location. In the heart of the solution lies an innovative multi-source heat pump with a cascading configuration, including a magneto caloric (bottom cycle) and a vapor compression heat pump (top cycle). The heat pump is combined with other technologies in tailored made solutions that suit the specific needs of each building. 10/2020-09/2024, Grant agreement n. 101000785
RES4LIVE
RES4LIVE European Research Program that Psyctotherm is proudly a member, aims to develop and bring into the market integrated, cost-effective and case-sensitive RES solutions towards achiehttps://catalyst.psyctotherm.gr/?page_id=2220ving fossil-free livestock farming 10/2020-09/2024, Grant agreement n. 101000785
MINISTOR
The project aims to design and develop a novel compact, integrated thermal storage system for achieving sustainable heating, cooling and electricity storage that can be adapted to new and existing residential buildings11/2019-06/2025 , Grant agreement n. 86982
REHOUSE
The REHOUSE project aims to enhance the efficiency and productivity of building renovations, improve comfort and satisfaction for occupants, and promote the use of integrated, decentralized renewable energy solutions. Psyctotherm’s role involves designing and implementing a robust, multi-source heat pump system that leverages solar, geothermal, and ambient heat sources to provide efficient heating and cooling for a residential building in Xanthi, Greece. The system’s design includes an advanced control strategy that dynamically selects the optimal heat source or hybrid mode to achieve the highest coefficient of performance (COP), ensuring maximum system efficiency and performance across varying conditions10/2022 – 09/2026, Grant agreement n. 101079951
SEEDS
The SEEDS project aims to reduce the thermal energy demand of buildings and enable energy flexibility to increase renewable energy (RES) integration, ultimately enhancing grid stability in a cost-effective manner with a low life cycle environmental impact. In this project, Psyctotherm is responsible for designing and implementing an innovative multi-source heat pump system that uniquely utilizes ammonia (R717) as a natural refrigerant, rather than conventional synthetic refrigerants. This ammonia-based system leverages solar, geothermal, and ambient sources to provide efficient heating and cooling. Equipped with an advanced control strategy, the system dynamically selects the optimal heat source or uses a hybrid mode to maximize the coefficient of performance (COP), ensuring both high efficiency and environmental sustainability. 01/2024-12/2027, Grant Agreement n. 101138211
EEETHOS
Energy Efficiency and Electrification Technologies for Heat Flow Optimization in Process Industries. EEETHOS will fill a technology gap by developing key-enabling technologies for energy efficient, flexible and decarbonized process heating, and demonstrating them in five installations at industrial end-users at a TRL of 711/2024 - 10/2028 Grand Agreement: n. 101178624
Seals of Ecxellence
Seal of excellence I
The project aims to create a 20kWe nominal power cycle that will be connected to a biogas ICE and operates at an upper temperature limit slightly lower than the temperature of the cooling water of the ICE (~75-80°C).
Seal of excellence II HEAT MARINE
The project aims to develop a high temperature heat pump system, which recovers the discarded heat of the engine cooling circuit on the ship (instead of rejecting it at sea) and then upgrades this heat using a small amount of electricity.
