Our buildings are increasingly at the frontlines of the fight against climate change. While traditional HVAC systems are known for high energy consumption, advanced solutions like Vapor Absorption Chillers (VAC) and Vapor Absorption Machines (VAM) are emerging as true game-changers. By relying on waste heat instead of electricity, and by integrating greener refrigerants and smart controls, these systems are cutting carbon emissions while making cooling more sustainable.

These detect whether a room or zone is occupied, allowing the system to reduce or stop heating or cooling when no one is present.
Smart thermostats and controllers learn when spaces are typically in use and adjust temperatures accordingly, often pre-heating or pre-cooling efficiently to save energy.
By operating only when and where needed, and at optimal efficiency, smart HVAC systems combined with VAC/VAM drastically cut electricity consumption.
Proactive maintenance and optimized operation reduce wear and tear, extending the life of HVAC equipment and lowering maintenance costs.
While smart HVAC doesn’t directly change refrigerant types, predictive maintenance helps identify leaks early, preventing harmful greenhouse gases from entering the atmosphere.
The rise of smart HVAC, alongside vapor absorption chillers and machines, is transforming a traditional energy-intensive system into a powerful climate management tool. These solutions make buildings not only comfortable but also active contributors to global decarbonisation goals.
