The World Energy Outlook 2024 (or WEO 2024), is a report by the International Energy Agency (IEA), which provides an accurate and detailed overview of the challenges and opportunities faced by the global energy sector.

The introduction of nuclear powered data centres is a new trend which could, over time, completely revolutionise the technology sector.

The decomposition of refrigerants is becoming an increasingly important issue, especially in light of the urgent need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and protect the environment. Refrigerants such as HFC-134a are widely used in air conditioning and refrigeration systems, but their disposal poses significant challenges due to their chemical stability and high global warming potential.

According to the latest forecasts, the heat exchanger market will continue to grow in terms of sales volume, boosted by rising demand from the energy, chemical and HVAC sectors. Heat exchangers will play an increasingly important role in the optimisation of thermal processes at global level, thanks to the growing need for efficient, sustainable energy sources.

The European CharCool project is coordinated by the University of Padova and financed via funding of 38 million euros from the European Innovation Council. It represents a significant breakthrough in the field of sustainable cooling.

The AI (or Artificial Intelligence) Act is a major step in global legislation and strengthens the European Union’s leading role in the regulation of artificial intelligence (AI).

The Green Homes Directive, also known as the 4th version of the EPDB (Energy Performance of Buildings Directive), is a key feature of Europe’s policy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote energy efficiency in the construction industry.

On October 21, the so-called Heat Pump Day will be celebrated: an event organized by the European Heat Pump Association (EHPA) dedicated to both raising awareness and promoting heat pump technology.

The heat transfer fluids market is currently undergoing a phase of rapid expansion, accelerated by a series of factors such as growing industrialisation and rising demand for energy efficient solutions across a range of manufacturing sectors.

Fully refrigerated cold chains undoubtedly provide one of the best solutions to two of the most pressing problems of our time: how to tackle food waste and greenhouse gas emissions.
