The existing ventilation system in the garage relied on single-phase, dual speed transformer controlled radial fans. This outdated system suffered from inefficiency and partial malfunction, leading to higher energy consumption and reliability issues. To create a more reliable and efficient solution, the old fans were replaced with two NOVENCO® ZerAx® axial fans. Each ZerAx fan is powered with an 0.8 kW electric motor, resulting in a combined power output of 1.6 kW for both. This represents a significant reduction compared to the 3.2 kW.
NOVENCO® Building & Industry was awarded the contract by H&V Serviceplan for design, delivery, installation and commissioning of the fully certified NOVENCO ClearChoice™ smoke control and environmental ventilation systems for the Osiers Road development located in the Riverside Quarter of Wandsworth London, United Kingdom.

With the optimisation of an older ventilation system with highly efficient Danfoss speed-controlled NOVENCO® ZerAx® fans, the company Fraport AG at Frankfurt Airport in Germany saves approximately 60% energy and 2.2 kt CO2 annually. The numbers are impressive in light of today’s soaring energy prices and constant green agenda focus. These modern ZerAx fans preserve the total energy of the airflow as they save the dynamic pressure while keeping the static pressure, which results in system efficiencies of up to 85%.
NOVENCO Building & Industry has retrofitted the production hall ventilation in the foundry of a German car manufacturer together with the contractor T&S Klimatechnik und Montagebau GmbH. The old system from 2012 consisted of seven large axial fans, each with an air volume of 240,000 m³/h. The fans were driven by 160 kW motors on the inlet side by means of separately mounted intermediate shafts. In case of failures, the customer had considerable difficulties with repairs, replacement was simply not possible due to the size. The result was long downtimes. The maintenance effort was enormous due to the system design and the many wear parts.
The Dharampal Satyapal Group (DS Group), a leading conglomerate of companies in India, has recently executed the first phase of a large retrofit project of the air handling units at their headquarters in Noida. This first phase comprised the replacement of 40 outdated centrifugal fans with highly efficient NOVENCO® ZerAx® fans. The project is part of the company's sustainable development journey, which aims for platinum certification of its sustainable buildings.

The Grotius residential towers are situated next to the Central Station in The Hague in The Netherlands. With heights of 120 and 100 metres, these two towers will make a visible contribution to The Hague’s skyline. Upon completion in 2022, the two towers will include 655 high-quality flats, cafes, restaurants and an underground, enclosed car park with space for 245 passenger cars.
NOVENCO Building & Industry was selected to design, supply, install and commission the certified pressurization systems and the car park ventilation system. High standards are set for the sustainability in the project, which are much in line with NOVENCO’s corporate sustainability objectives. “This is not only reflected in the products, but also in the production methods and the 98% product recyclability. At Grotius we will use the most energy-efficient fan of its kind in the world,” explains Ruud van Beek, Director at NOVENCO in The Netherlands.
In 2001, NOVENCO Building & Industry installed one of the first jet fan systems in the United Kingdom for an enclosed underground car park of a shopping mall set on the beautiful waterfront of one of the coastal cities in South East England. At that time, the system was designed without a CO detection system.
The car park with 1,350 parking spaces is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Even after 20 years of constant operation, the NOVENCO fans still run perfectly. In the absence of a CO monitoring system, many fans are switched on manually and run 24/7, leading to unnecessary energy consumption. This is far from an optimal solution in today's energy-saving world.
To improve the efficiency of the system as a whole, the recommended solution was to refurbish the car park with new control panels and a fully automatic CO monitoring system to reduce electricity consumption.
The reconstruction and expansion of the A9, one of the busiest Dutch motorways between Schiphol Airport, Amsterdam and Almere will ease congestion and improve the quality of life. The motorway has been widened to five lanes in each direction plus a tidal flow lane. These extra lanes will improve traffic flow and
the accessibility of the Randstad region. The Gaasperdammertunnel is a part of this project. With a total length of 3 kilometres and five tunnel tubes it is the longest and widest land tunnel in the Netherlands. By guiding all traffic through the semisunken tunnel, the impact on the living environment is reduced to zero.
Furthermore, a park with an area of nearly 15 ha was created on top of the tunnel.

The Volkswagen Group is Europe’s largest automobile manufacturer with production sites in seven European countries. With the group-wide future program “Strategy 2025”, Volkswagen wants to get fit for the future with the vision of becoming a world-leading provider of sustainable mobility. Sustainable means also responsible care for the environment.
Sustainable growth is the basis of medium-term future planning and the associated increase in value and image of any company. In that context, the new generation of air handling units with axial fans can contribute greatly in all areas of ventilation and air conditioning.
Since the beginning of 2017, Volkswagen has been intensively investigating the technical possibilities of high-efficiency axial fans and has carried out a whole series of tests, measurements and practical trials. At the beginning of 2018, it was time for the next step: implementation of the obtained results and knowledge in new air conditioning technology. Two production sites in two countries had air handling units with new technology and highly efficient axial fans installed – at Porsche in Stuttgart/Zuffenhausen, Germany and at Volkswagen Navarra in Pamplona, Spain.
Volkswagen Navarra assumes daily responsibility for the environment, safety and society. Thereby resource management and emissions receive special attention. Through innovation and impressive planning at the site, the goal is to continuously reduce energy consumption and the associated CO2 emissions. For this strategic interest, the new device technology with the new ZerAx® axial fans was deliberately chosen as a solution for the renewal of the ventilation in the assembly hall.
"The demands placed on the air conditioning of buildings increase steadily. Axial fans can make a significant contribution to combining technical requirements with sustainable building design. The new trend-setting AHU technology has fully met all expectations."
Asier Matorell, Factory Planning Manager, Volkswagen Navarra and Axel Rossmannek, Head of Supply Planning Volkswagen Wolfsburg
The ventilation had to be completely renewed for one of the largest production buildings of the factory. Higher air volumes were needed and the space available for the installation of the equipment was insufficient. Therefore, a new installation location for the AHUs had to be found on the roof. The large 80,000 m³/h units were placed on a steel platform on the connection between two buildings. In addition to saving energy, the criteria unit size, weight saving and noise reduction were therefore also key requirements.
The high demands could only be met with the new generation of air handling units, in which the highly efficient axial fans from NOVENCO were optimally utilized. The last equipment was put into operation in mid-December and exceeded all expectations.
The ZerAx® axial fans currently represent the world’s leading fan technology with fan efficiencies of up to 92%. NOVENCO, however, went one step further by optimizing the ZerAx® even more for use in the air handling units.
The key phrase here is intelligent interaction of the system components. At NOVENCO this interaction is embodied in the term EC+ and is developed in cooperation with Danfoss, Denmark. Only the optimal interaction of the system components fan - motor - electronics – diffusor, makes the full potential of a highly efficient fan realizable.

The Danish tv station serves the public with around the clock news. NOVENCO Building & Industry A/S was contacted by the tv station when a fan in one of their technical rooms broke down. The fan supplies fresh air to the news office where people work all hours of the day to provide news to the public.
Due to the fact that the editorial department broadcasts 24/7, it was of the utmost importance that the new fan was fitted into an existing installation to minimize installation time and noise. The fan was installed during the night and caused a minimum of disturbance to the news team at work.
The Danish company CS Gruppen A/S handles daily logistics in the Danish food industry. Their freezer plants are located all over the country and from their most southern location in Padborg they ship 250-300 tons of food a day. That amounts to a total of 200,000 pallets per year. Part of the business is freezing fresh meat at minus 30 °C and storing it at minus 18 °C until it is shipped out into the world in freezer trucks and containers.
The company freezes up to 1,800 tons a day so naturally a large amount of energy is required to keep the plant going and to meet the customers’ demands.
CS Gruppen A/S is even expanding their capacity in Padborg to expedite even greater quantities and accommodate the technological and environmental requirements of a modern freezer facility. When reviewing the plant for energy optimisation the existing fans were included in the review. The 25-30 year old fans represented a large part of the energy consumption in the freezing tower.
A new underwater car park has been established in the center of Copenhagen right next to the Queens palace and close to the popular Nyhavn where millions of tourists visit every year.

Dubai does not owe its success to oil reserves, but to resources of human talent, their ingenuity and creativity.
Carlsberg Group has stated as a goal that energy consumption must be optimised in order to reduce CO2 emissions and reduce the energy consumption costs. The ventilation constitutes 23% of the total energy consumption at the brewery in Fredericia, and the CO2 reduction contributes with 0.04 GBP per saved kWh in sales of CO2.
Therefore, it was primarily for financial reasons that it was decided to replace the old fans installed in the 1970’s with new ZerAx® fans. When the first fans were installed, they were not adjusted and therefore ran at constant full capacity in very humid surroundings, in one of the bottling halls that works 24/7. The purpose was to exhaust the moist air and inject dry, warm air.
AIDAprima, the first of two new cruise vessels for Aida Cruises, was officially launched on May 3rd 2014 at the Nagasaki Shipyard of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries. It is the latest and largest ship ever built for the German shipowner. The sister ship, yet to be named, follows in 2016. AIDAprima and the sister ship are the most advanced cruise liners in the world and the largest ever constructed in Japan. And with the ZerAx® fans built into the air handling units (AHUs), they are set to be the most energy efficient vessels in their class. Both ships are in this aspect truly next-generation vessels. The passenger experience is exceptional, among other things because Aida Cruises has gone to great lengths to ensure that the ships are the most fuel efficient cruise line.
A location for this Data Center in Northern Scandinavia close to the Arctic circle, has been chosen because of the possibility of using natural cooling for this enormous facility. This server facility is expected to be as large as 13 football fields, with an estimated power usage of 120 GW, corresponding to the power use of about 16.000 households.
The facility will have substantially lower energy consumption as well as lower set-up and operational costs in comparison to other modern data centres, and it will be one of the world’s most energy efficient facilities.
Complete and optimised ventilation solution replaces the entire current ventilation systems, both in new and existing wind turbines. The project delivery includes supply of three different fan sizes depending on the type of wind turbine.
The 280,000 m2 floor space makes the Odense University Hospital one of the largest heated areas of the Danish hospital service. The total energy consumption for electricity, water, and heating is above 100 mill. kroner per year. Within this, the expenses for ventilation are by far the largest expenditure item in the energy field.
This has led to the completion of the first stage of replacing the old fans. So far 35 fans have been replaced. These new fans still work in conjunction with the older ventilation systems that were installed in the 1950s and 1960s – yet the savings have been significant and immediate.
The Aarhus Concert Hall was opened in August 1982, and in 2007 the building was extended by 17,000 m². The completed building occupies more than 33,000 m² and has 500 rooms. It is visited annually by 700,000 people and provides a venue for more than 1,000 events a year.
