Cheaper from day one. Independent of subsidies.
Hyca doesn't save money with a trick but with two simple effects. Both grow as more cheap power reaches the grid.
- lower heat cost (LCOH)
- ~12 %
- savings per year at 10 MW, net
- ~€0.5 million
- efficiency
- up to 98 %
- payback compared with a new gas boiler
- < 2 years
~12 %: Levelised cost of heat (LCOH) compared with a gas boiler, over the plant's lifetime, including investment, maintenance and energy. Calculated without subsidies using our cost model; the exact figure depends on your energy prices and operating hours.
Two effects that add up
- 01
More heat from every cubic metre of gas
Catalytic combustion reaches up to 98 % efficiency. A typical gas boiler is at about 91 %.
- 02
Power when it's cheap
The Smart Energy Controller switches to power in the hours when it's cheaper than gas. The more operating hours, the more of those hours the plant uses.
The drivers
- Operating hours: the more hours, the more cheap power windows.
- Your energy prices and contracts for power and gas.
- Your grid connection: it limits how much heat can be made electrically.
- The carbon price: it makes the gas path more expensive and switching more attractive.
Everything included
Hardware, control, software, optimisation and maintenance all come from us, from one source. You buy the plant, and we make sure it runs on the cheaper energy source every hour. We're happy to talk about other models too, such as delivering heat instead of a plant.
