Green technology that heats and cools

Situated in Szczecin, overlooking the Odra and surrounded by forests and parks is the West Pomeranian Oncology Center. Every day, several hundred people visit the facility’s outpatient clinic, diagnostic labs and wards for cancer diagnostics and treatment.

The center is a public medical facility specializing in cancer treatment. It has cancer surgery, radiotherapy and clinical oncology wards, as well as specialist outpatient clinics and diagnostic labs.

The hospital is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment for cancer detection, imaging and treatment, such as digital mammographs, magnetic resonance units, computer tomography units and linear accelerators.

The biggest challenge for me as an engineer was to build such large and complicated energy system without disrupting the normal operation of the hospital. By designing and implementing an RES (Renewable Energy System) hybrid system, in which heat pumps are powered using electricity from EV panels, we have managed to decrease demand for mains electricity, which has significantly reduced the hospital’s operating costs.”

The equipment allows precision imaging and ensures precision treatment of tumors. Innovative technology and the skill and professionalism of its personnel has won the center a reputation as one of the leading establishments of its kind in Poland.

The large size of the hospital and the number of patients and staff, as well as constant advances in medical equipment, create a high demand for energy to supply both heating and cooling needs. For this reason and with an eye on costs and environmental protection, the center’s management took the decision to use an innovative combination of ground-source heat pumps and photovoltaic panels.

The hospital has now been equipped with 10 Thermia Mega XL ground-source inverter heat pumps. Using renewable energy drawn from the ground, heat pumps are able to provide heat, domestic hot water and cooling.

Supporting the heat pumps is a photovoltaic system capable to supplying 100% of the electricity needed by the heat pumps. This hybrid technology is vital to achieving the maximum possible energy efficiency and the most environmentally friendly solution.
