While Honda is perceived as a car manufacturer or motorcycle specialist in this country, it is a bit different in the USA and Japan. There you also appear as a power generator.
After VW, the car manufacturer Honda is also pushing into the German heating technology market. Together with the Remscheid specialist Vaillant, the Japanese have developed a micro-thermal power station for single-family homes. As with the technology from VW and the electricity provider Lichtblick, electricity and heat can be generated at the same time.
Vaillant plans to bring the devices onto the market in June and sell around 400 systems by the end of the year, the company announced in Düsseldorf. The devices, which work with a gas combustion engine, should cost an average of 16,000 euros without installation.
Intelligent division of labor
Vaillant has developed the entire hydraulic system for the heating system, the control technology and the connection technology, according to the press release. The new engine technology comes from Honda. In Japan and the USA, the car manufacturer has been offering micro-CHP modules for use in single-family homes since 2003. To date, more than 100,000 systems have been sold and installed in both countries. (dpa / AG)
