Enerin
Integrating high-temperature heat pumps for industry net-zero
As heat pump technologies advance at a remarkable speed, Enerin looks forward to connecting with stakeholders at the High-Temperature Heat Pump (HTHP) Symposium to explore one of the defining challenges of our time — how to electrify industry profitably and at scale. With Europe set to halt Russian natural gas imports by 2027, the push towards industrial electrification is intensifying.
Industrial HTHP pilot projects are vital to demonstrate that such systems can replace fossil fuels when combined with sustainable energy mixes, and thermal energy storage.
At Enerin, we believe decarbonisation is a reality in motion. Our pioneering HTHP pilots at Pelagia (seafood), GE Healthcare (pharmaceuticals) and the IVAR IKS biogas plant have now accumulated over 15,000 operating hours as of December 2025. This is equivalent to approximately 1.8 years of continuous operation.
Two papers from Enerin pilot projects will be presented at the 2026 HTHP Symposium. Pelagia Product and Process Developer, Ola Flesland, will present a fishmeal-drying study using steam-generating HTHPs, and GE Healthcare results will be presented by Enerin CEO, Arne Høeg.
Modular, flexible and competitive at high temperatures
Enerin holds a competitive edge in the HTHP market with relatively few competitors able to deliver in the highest temperature range of 200-250°C. The HTHPs offer the highest efficiency (COP) when undertaking a single-stage temperature lift of 80-100°C.
The strategic goal is to redefine high-temperature heat pump performance by integrating a modular, flexible and standardised system directly into the factory heating system that adapts automatically to process temperature and steam pressure demands without performance loss.
Enerin announces €15m Series A investment
In November 2025, Enerin announced the €15 million Series A investment to industrialise its modular steam-generating HTHPs for global industry.
The deal was led by Climentum Capital, The Footprint Firm, Johnson Controls and Move Energy, with participation from PSV Hafnium and Momentum. Johnson Controls’ participation provides strategic validation and global reach from one of the world’s leading providers of energy systems. The capital will expand the commercial and manufacturing operations and accelerate next-generation development of Enerin’s HTHPs.
Targets mass market
“Industrial companies are ready to decarbonise high-temperature heat, but the mass market has lacked simple, profitable solutions that fit everyday operations,” Enerin CEO, Arne Høeg commented at the time.
“Because our automated system adapts to varying process conditions, it allows factories to decarbonize without redesigning operations. This blend of flexibility and standardisation is what finally makes clean industrial heat available and profitable at scale,” he said.
But Enerin is not complacent. The defining project for the company in 2026 is the commissioning of its 1.2-megawatt unit at the Roche Basel/Kaiseraugst site in Switzerland - a strong signal that global corporations are accelerating efforts toward regenerative net-zero CO₂ energy.
