With decades of experience in high-efficiency thermal systems and power plants, Turboden is setting new standards in the development of innovative Large Heat Pumps ranging from 5 to 80 MWt per unit, and operating at temperatures up to 250°C.

These high-temperature systems are ideal for a wide range of applications, including district heating networks and industrial process heat, enabling significant reductions in CO₂ emissions and fossil fuel consumption.

Turboden’s portfolio includes both modular heat pump systems, designed for fast deployment and scalability, and Taylor Made solutions, engineered for large-scale applications. The custom units are equipped with high-performance centrifugal compressors and tailored to meet specific process requirements, offering maximum flexibility in terms of temperature, pressure, and integration.

Whether recovering low-grade waste heat or electrifying complex thermal processes, Turboden’s LHPs ensure high performance, reliability, and seamless integration with existing infrastructure. Their flexibility makes them suitable for both urban energy systems and energy-intensive industries, supporting the transition to low-carbon heat.

Part of the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Group, Turboden has delivered more than 1 GW of installed capacity in over 50 countries, actively contributing to the global transition toward carbon neutrality and a more sustainable energy future.

Large Heat Pumps for Industrial Decarbonization

Turboden is a global leader in high-efficiency thermal systems, offering advanced solutions for industrial decarbonization and energy transition. Known for its expertise in Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) systems, Turboden has expanded its portfolio to include Large Heat Pumps (LHP), specifically engineered to meet the growing demand for high-temperature heat in industrial and district heating applications.

Turboden’s Large Heat Pumps are designed for capacities from 5 to 80 MWt per unit and can deliver hot water or steam with temperatures up to 250°C. These systems are based on robust, proven technologies and are tailored to recover and upgrade heat from various low-temperature sources — such as industrial waste heat, ambient heat, or renewable thermal sources — enabling efficient electrification of heat and significant CO₂ emissions reduction.

Applications range from district heating networks to chemical, paper, food, and other process industries, where high-grade heat is essential. By electrifying heat supply through large-scale heat pumps, industries can reduce their dependency on fossil fuels, increase energy efficiency, and comply with increasingly stringent decarbonization targets.

Turboden’s LHPs are characterized by:

  • High temperature output up to 250°C
  • Large-scale capacity, up to 80 MWt per unit
  • Customizable design for seamless integration into existing systems
  • High reliability and long operational life, based on industrial-grade components
  • Support from a global industrial group, ensuring financial and technical robustness

The company’s approach combines engineering excellence, deep thermodynamic know-how, and a strong commitment to sustainability. Every project is supported by in-house design, manufacturing, and testing, ensuring optimal performance and reliability. 

With over 1 GW of installed capacity delivered in more than 50 countries, Turboden is a trusted partner for industries and utilities aiming to decarbonize their heat supply and improve energy performance.
