The Hagoshrim and Inbal Hotels are Reaping the Significant Economic and Environmental Benefits of the Hybrid Heating System
TEL AVIV, Israel, June 8, 2010 - Phoebus Energy (www.phoebus-energy.com ), developer of the Hybrid
Water Heating System, launches its expansion into the hotel industry with
successful installations at Hagoshrim and Inbal Hotels in Israel.
Hotels and resorts consume large amounts of fossil fuel to heat water for
showers, space heating and swimming pools. Fossil fuel costs represent a
significant percentage of the total energy expenses at hotels and are
extremely volatile.
The Hybrid Water Heating System packages modern heat pump technology with
intelligent web-based monitoring and control software. The Phoebus Energy
solution reduces fossil fuel consumption and carbon emissions while
significantly reducing energy costs at hotel facilities.
According to Eytan Rachimi, CEO Hagoshrim Hotel. "The Phoebus Energy
Hybrid Water Heating Solution delivers bottom-line cost savings and maximized
energy efficiency while ensuring a continuous supply of hot water to the
guests at Hagoshrim. In addition, we have online access to detailed reports
to actually see the energy we are using and saving."
The Hagoshrim Hotel and Resort is a 164-room facility in Kiryat Shemona.
Since implementing the Hybrid Water Heating System, the site is saving 65% of
its hot water heating expenses. The Inbal Hotel, a 283-room facility in
Jerusalem, has a Hybrid System in commissioning. Test savings are showing a
72% monthly reduction in hot water heating expenses.
According to Mr. Yaron Tal, President and CEO of Phoebus Energy "The
unique hybrid solution has been developed to address the real needs of the
hotel industry - cost savings, Green Energy, no operational risks, and most
importantly, a system that is able to make the most cost effective energy
decision today, as well as when the economics change in the future."
The Phoebus Hybrid Water Heating System is installed at 15 commercial
sites around Israel, all with similar savings to Hotels.
