Step by step natural gas-free with smart building automation

To make a building natural gas-free, a heat network or a heat pump is often recommended. However, there is another alternative route that makes it possible to gradually make a building natural gas-free using micro climate solutions, allowing investment costs to be spread.

The mission of Piet-Hein Speel of Aesthenergy is to entice large numbers of property owners to gradually make their buildings natural gas-free and thus create an aesthetically beautiful, comfortable, sustainable and energy-efficient microclimate per room. The starting point is to largely pay for the investments from savings on energy consumption and maintenance costs through infrared heating combined with smart building automation.

According to Piet-Hein, with aesthetically beautiful 'eye catchers' you can give the energy transition an extra boost and get people moving to participate. Infrared heating feels like the warmth of the sun. With infrared you heat people and not the air, as with conventional natural gas-fired central heating or the heat from a heat pump or a heat network. It is a different kind of heat that warms people and surrounding objects with heat waves. With smart building automation and innovative additions, infrared creates a fully-fledged alternative for making a building natural gas-free.

Aesthenergy sees the energy transition as a change process: first working with 'innovators' and 'early adopters' and laying the foundation with them, then bringing the large majority along, both citizens and companies.

In Piet-Hein Speel van's lecture Aesthenergy you will receive an explanation about how to gradually make a building natural gas-free using infrared heating combined with smart building automation.
