The new Oldenburg hospital will utilize state-of-the-art heat pump technology from SmartHeat. As a German developer and manufacturer of high-performance air/water heat pumps, SmartHeat provides energy-efficient solutions for temporary construction heating as well as for permanent heating and cooling in buildings.
The project combines two systems:
Both systems reliably supply heat at 10–18 °C to the 30,000 m² building via warm air heating coils.
Although the 1 megawatt heat pump cascade in the hospital project is primarily used for construction heating from October 2025 to March 2026, it is equally suitable as a fully-fledged, long-term heating and cooling system.
SmartHeat heat pumps are designed for continuous operation in the building – efficient, robust, and with an optional cooling function for summer use.
Even if the hospital is later converted to district heating, the project clearly demonstrates: SmartHeat delivers scalable, professional heat pump technology that can reliably cover the entire thermal demand of a large building complex.
Installation and on-site support are provided by Hanse Wärme, the experienced project partner for the construction and operation of the SmartHeat systems.
