Hanon Systems, a global leader in automotive thermal management for electrified mobility, has achieved a significant milestone with the development of the world’s first 4th generation heat pump system. This breakthrough technology, a crucial component for electric vehicles (EVs), has been commercially available since July, marking a new era in EV thermal management. Revolutionary Parallel Heat Source Recovery The 4th generation heat pump system stands out as the first to employ a parallel heat source recovery method. This innovative approach utilizes waste heat from the motor and battery, as well as heat from external air, for heating, cooling, and battery temperature management. The result is a substantial enhancement in EV driving range, addressing one of the primary concerns of electric vehicle owners. Hanon Systems modular heat pump system incorporates multiple patented or patent-pending technologies. A key feature is the integration of the Refrigerant Control Module (RCM) and the Coolant Control Module (CCM) into a unified control unit. This integration allows for comprehensive management of the entire thermal system, optimizing efficiency and performance. Continuous Innovation Drives EV Range Extension Subu Nagasubramony, co-CEO of Hanon Systems, emphasized the company’s commitment to innovation. By continuously refining their heat pump system design, Hanon Systems […]
