If this thing produces 1 MW in heat output for a 200 KW power input, it is no more efficient than a good heat pump (with a COP of 5, not unusual in large-size installations)...
- lafar6502 13y agoMy quick calculation below shows that the device is not capable of 1MW power output with declared parameters (amount of heated water produced). It's calculated maximum power output would be like 160-180kW, which strangely is quite similar to declared input power. So it's not a heat pump, it's an ordinary (but expensive) electric boiler ;) I only wonder what it does with all that nickel and hydrogen...
