SUSTAINABLE THERMAL ADVANCED COOLING
Our Story
Established in September 2016, in Copenhagen Denmark. Our founders Paul Christoffersen and Henrik Schiøtt Sørensen made it their goal to accelerate the green energy transition and disrupt an antiquated cooling industry causing environmental harm. A much needed "yes we can" thinking and innovation based on sustainable water-based technology solutions.
STAC's IP is next generation innovation that builds on what began 40+ years ago with Gunnar Minds, the pioneer and Father of water-based cooling, who was awarded EU's 1st Environmental Prize, for discovering "Water as a Natural Refrigerant". STAC's team and our engineering partners, represent the longest and most comprehensive know-how of using water-as-the-refrigerant and designing and developing state-of-the-art turbo machinery.
STAC addresses climate change, the growing need for indoor climate control, and the rise in energy use due to the growing demand for cooling. We enable highly energy efficient, sustainable and environmentally friendly heating and cooling, based on cutting-edge water vapor compression systems.
Our Vision & Mission
Our vision is to help companies innovate while solving some of the planet's biggest climate problems, using water-as-a-refrigerant. We aim to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions on a massive scale by providing next generation cooling solutions, and expand the existing enormous impact potential of DHC networks.
By making STAC's Technology available, we enable the use of water for decentralised environmentally sustainable cooling and heating solutions. This can result in clean, efficient, cost effective energy with a geographic reach never seen before.
We are on a mission to drive the transformation of space and industrial cooling towards using water as a refrigerant.
We work with our partners to set and improve industry standards towards better solutions, and we work with industry leaders to push boundaries of what's possible for environmental impact.
