MagnoTherm Solutions develops and builds magnetic cooling devices (MCD). Refrigeration takes up for almost 20% of all electrical energy around the globe. Moreover, it uses climate-unfriendly refrigerant gases up to 4,000 stronger than CO2. With global regulations, those refrigerants will be banned in near future. Alternatives are either explosive and toxic or limited in its efficiency. With the rise of warm countries like the BRICS states, demand for cooling will grow tremendously.
