What is the Energie Thermodynamic Hot Water Solar System?
ENERGIE’s Thermodynamic Solar Systems harness a technology inspired by the foundational principles of thermodynamics, pioneered by French physicist Nicolas Carnot.
This innovative system enables our solar panels to capture heat not only from direct sunlight but also from ambient sources like rain and wind, operating continuously throughout the year.
An integral feature of our design involves the circulation of an eco-friendly fluid at sub-zero temperatures within the solar panel, maximizing the absorption of solar and environmental energy.
This energy is then efficiently transferred to water via a heat exchanger. As a result, ENERGIE’s Thermodynamic Solar Panels transcend the limitations of conventional solar panels, ensuring a more effective elevation of water temperature while maintaining eco-conscious operations.
Does the system have an antibacterial device?
Certainly. As per the current standards in place, the sanitary hot water equipment includes a feature enabling the tank temperature to exceed 70ºC. This function can be activated manually and is accompanied by an automatic deactivation mechanism for safety.
Can I still have hot water on days where there is no sun?
As the fluid circulates within the panel at exceptionally low temperatures, it has the capacity to absorb more solar energy compared to conventional liquids, operating efficiently even during sunless days or at night. Leveraging this thermal disparity, the solar panel effectively captures ambient heat and transfers it to the water, always ensuring a consistent supply of hot water up to 55ºC.
Does the Thermodynamic Hot Water Solar System need regular maintenance?
Maintenance is almost non-existent, you are just advised to check the magnesium anode, a protection element of the tank, once a year.
Can the Thermodynamic system be installed in any region?
Absolutely. The ENERGIE Thermodynamic Solar System is versatile and can be installed nationwide, even in regions prone to rain or snowfall.
Energie Eco Hot Water System
Introducing our cutting-edge thermodynamic solar system, meticulously crafted for domestic water heating, tailored to meet your home’s needs.
Experience uninterrupted hot water at temperatures reaching up to 55°C, round the clock, ensuring maximum efficiency.
The ECO series offers a range of capacities from 250 to 500 litres, featuring options with 1 or 2 thermodynamic solar panels and water heaters equipped with or without an additional coil, available in stainless steel or enamel finishes. Comprising an indoor unit, the water heater, and an outdoor unit, the thermodynamic solar panel.
Solar Performance
Rigorously tested and certified in compliance with the highest European standards, our system boasts an impressive coefficient of performance of 3.8, as confirmed by EN16147. Notably, these tests were conducted under controlled conditions without solar irradiance, wind, or rain. For optimal real-world performance, we recommend installing the thermodynamic solar panel facing South (or North in the southern hemisphere), East, or West. Whether vertically or horizontally mounted on a wall, roof, or flat roof, it should always be positioned in a landscape orientation.
Sturdy And Durable
Crafted from anodized aluminium and fortified with a specialized Solokote finish, our thermodynamic solar panel is engineered to withstand corrosion, especially in saline or aggressive environments. This advanced technical design enables ENERGIE to offer a 10-year warranty against corrosion, providing customers with peace of mind and long-term reliability.
Effortless And User-Friendly
Our hot water cylinder's exceptional efficiency is achieved through the utilization of high-density polyurethane foam, which minimizes heat loss rates. This insulation allows the water to remain heated for multiple consecutive days, even when the unit is switched off.
Sophisticated
The equipment’s indoor unit has a stainless steel or enamelled cylinder, as well as an external condenser. High density injected polyurethane insulation with cathodic protection. The thermodynamic block is equipped with a state-of-the-art compressor, with one of the lowest electrical consumptions on the market.

Thermodynamic Solar System Operating Principle
#1
The fluid within the closed-loop circuit undergoes evaporation within the solar panel, absorbing heat from the sun, wind, rain, and surrounding air through natural convection.
#2
Subsequently, the heated fluid moves to the compressor, where it is pressurized, elevating both its pressure and temperature.
#3
Next, it proceeds to the heat exchanger, where the accumulated heat is transferred to the water.
#4
Following this, an expansion valve facilitates a drop in pressure and temperature to sub-zero levels.
#5
The fluid then cycles back up to the thermodynamic solar panel, repeating the process anew.
Photovoltaic Intelligence
With PV Smart Grid Ready capability, the ENERGIE Solar System harnesses surplus power from PV Panels, Wind Energy, or Small Hydro sources, storing what would otherwise be lost energy directly into the water. This feature enables you to enhance your savings.
Setting new benchmarks in intelligent energy management, our Photovoltaic Intelligence feature ensures optimal utilization of resources.
Maximize the productivity of your PV Solar Panels while simultaneously reducing Domestic Hot Water (DHW) costs.
By capitalizing on available solar irradiation, the thermodynamic solar system operates more efficiently during periods of heightened sunlight exposure.
Achieve the perfect balance between PV production and consumption through our intelligent controller, optimizing the utilization of renewable energy resources.
