What Is a Steam Generating Heat Pump?
A Steam-Generating Heat Pump (SGHP) is an advanced thermal system that produces high-temperature steam—up to 145°C—by upgrading low-grade heat from the environment or industrial processes. Unlike conventional boilers, which burn coal, diesel, or gas to generate steam, the SGHP uses an electrically driven refrigeration cycle to capture ambient heat, elevate its temperature through compression, and transfer it to water to produce pressurized water/high temperature steam.
By recovering and amplifying freely available heat, the SGHP delivers significantly higher efficiency than combustion boilers, often achieving up to 3-4x improvement in energy performance. This makes it a cleaner, safer, and more cost-effective alternative for industries that rely on continuous steam for critical production processes.
Why the TRIGeN Steam Generating
Heat Pump is a Game Changer
Why the TRIGeN Steam Generating Heat Pump is a Game Changer
Electrified Steam Beyond 100°C — A First in India
Conventional heat pumps typically don't work beyond 70–80°C. TRIGeN DC’s Steam Generating Heat Pump overcomes this limitation by delivering pressurized steam at 145°C, enabling industries to transition away from combustion-based steam systems without compromising process quality or output.
Up to 3-4× Higher Efficiency Than Boilers
Traditional boilers achieve efficiencies of 70–85%.
TRIGeN DC’s SGHP can operate at ~200%
efficiency (COP ~2.0), depending on ambient and
operating conditions.
The result: steam production at approximately
₹2.1 per kg or less—far cheaper than diesel, gas,
or coal-based systems
Zero Combustion, Zero On-Site Emissions
Powered entirely by electricity, the SGHP eliminates smoke, soot, NOx, SOx, and particulate emissions. When paired with renewable energy, it operates with near-zero carbon impact—ideal for industries pursuing aggressive decarbonization targets.
Simultaneous Cooling Output
While generating high-temperature steam, the
SGHP simultaneously produces chilled water
up to 7°C. This unique dual output supports:
Process cooling, Chilled-water storage, HVAC
integration.
The result is greater energy utilization and lowered
total operating cost.
Lower Maintenance & Higher Reliability
Boilers require intensive upkeep—burner tuning,
descaling, chimney cleaning, and periodic safety
certifications. SGHPs remove all combustionrelated maintenance and instead deliver:
- Minimal moving parts.
- PLC + HMI controls.
- IoT-enabled analytics.
- Predictive maintenance.
Ensuring dependable performance in even the
most demanding industrial environments
Designed for Heavy-Duty, 24×7 Industrial Operations
Built for continuous operation, TRIGeN DC’s
SGHPs incorporate:
- High/low pressure protections.
- Overload safeguards.
- Industrial-grade screw compressors.
- EEV-based precise refrigerant flow control.
- High thermal stability.
This ensures uninterrupted duty cycles for
mission-critical industries
Flexible Capacity — From 60 kW to 2 MW+
Industries can select from standardized capacities
or request custom-built systems.
Custom engineering beyond 2 MW is also
available.
