Partners Building World's Most Efficient Residential Air Conditioner

Hyperganic is partnering with Strata Manufacturing and EOS to build the world's most efficient residential air conditioner (A/C) system. The International Energy Agency projects that energy demand for air conditioners will triple by 2050 — equivalent to adding 10 new devices every second for the next 28 years. Even today, A/C units account for 20% of global electricity usage.

The strategic alliance between the three companies is designed to help solve this environmental challenge through advanced engineering and digital manufacturing. It also supports the UAE's 'Energy Strategy 2050' and targets the UN climate change conference in 2023 to introduce project updates

The partners will combine Hyperganic's algorithmic engineering approach with the EOS’ industrial metal 3D printing process and Strata’s implementation of digital production lines. The targeted result will be a residential A/C unit that is not only 10 times more efficient but can be sold at a cost-competitive price compared to conventional A/C units.

With sustainability as the focal point of the collaboration, the companies plan to show project updates at the United Nations’ Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) COP28 to be hosted in the UAE in 2023.

Hyperganic’s UAE team, which is expected to grow to 20 engineers by the end of 2022, will work closely with Strata's team in Abu Dhabi and the EOS team on the implementation of the project. “Our mission at Hyperganic is to use technology to help solve humanity's toughest challenges,” says Lin Kayser, Hyperganic founder/CEO. 

EOS has a similar focus. “At EOS, we are purpose-driven. Sustainability and responsible manufacturing lies at the heart of our company," says Dr. Hans J. Langer, EOS founder. “This project can only succeed when engineering and manufacturing are deeply integrated. We will engage with our UAE-based partners to significantly advance the state-of-the-art of technology further."

The team says this partnership is an inspiring model for industrial. “Through this project, we will work with Hyperganic and EOS on building the advanced technological manufacturing processes necessary for the product's success,” says Ismail Ali Abdulla, Strata CEO. “This partnership is a real leap for Strata, which is based on investing in 4IR technologies and building new avenues for industry.”
