SANCO2 wins Climate Action Hero Green Tech Award
April 22, 2024Resurrection Bay is cold, but its waters contain enough heat to keep downtown Seward warm, for those who know how to tap into it. New equipment at the Alaska Vocational Technical Center (AVTEC) in Seward helps technicians gain that know-how.
The center recently acquired a SanCO2 residential heat pump for hands-on training on installation and maintenance. Among those present for the unit’s arrival were Bruce Jaffa, chairman of the Port & Commerce Advisory Board. Jaffa noted that the SanCO2 system employs the same carbon dioxide heat pump technology as a major project known as the Seward Heat Loop.
