Energy efficiency gaining importance in German care and cure sector
Gouda - Royal Imtech N.V. (IM-AE, technical services provider in and outside Europe) announces that the German care and cure sector is increasingly interested in energy efficiency. Numerous hospitals, care facilities and medical research centres are switching to more efficient energy infrastructure. The advantages of this switch include lower operational costs, greater operational safety in terms of primary and secondary care processes, energy savings and reduced CO2 emission. Imtech recently received new energy efficiency orders worth more than 30 million euro.
René van der Bruggen, CEO Imtech: ‘The German care and cure sector is switching increasingly to energy efficient technical infrastructure. This entails applying a wide range of technical energy solutions perfectly suited to the primary and secondary care processes. This not only results in substantial cost savings, but also in a considerable improvement of the achieved sustainability, which is in line with the increased awareness of the importance of sustainability.’
Wide range of energy efficient solutions
Imtech is effecting a wide range of technical energy solutions in German hospitals. Examples of this are very efficient combined heat and power solutions (co-generation), decentralised power plants, thermal energy, specific electric energy, high-yield heat recovery, high efficiency heating, low-energy data networks, low-energy LED lighting and energy contracting.
Energy partner of dozens of hospitals and care facilities
In the meantime Imtech has become active throughout Germany as the technology partner of dozens of hospitals, care facilities and medical research centres. Recently new orders have been received from the Düsseldorf University’s Centre for Operational Medicine, the Dominikus and SANA hospital in Düsseldorf, the Rheinische Kliniken in Bonn, the Bergmannsheim University Clinic in Bochum, various medical research centres in Jülich and the CECAD medical laboratory in Cologne.
