Intellihot, a designer and manufacturer of built-environment tankless water heating systems that challenge legacy approaches for sustainability, has released its 2023 Environmental Impact Report, an annual scorecard highlighting the progress the company’s installed products are making toward its mission of a zero-waste future. The report is the company’s second.

From its inception, Intellihot’s raison d’etre has been to innovate and consistently improve tankless water heating technology to speed up its commercial adoption and remedy the energy waste caused by traditional boiler systems.

Its Electron series of tankless heat pump water heaters, the first such technology for commercial applications, combines the efficiency of heat pump technology and the water safety and on-demand features of tankless systems, with the compliance of CO2 refrigerant.

“Our products not only lead our battle against global warming, but also add significant value to our customers,” said founder and CEO Sridhar (Sri) Deivasigamani. “The success of our hot water tank replacement business led to new-construction projects, which are now a significant portion of our work. The 2023 Environmental Impact Report shows we’re not just selling a lot of units, we’re making a difference for the planet.”

KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THE INTELLIHOT REPORT

Milestones from Intellihot’s 2023 Environmental Impact Report:

  • 8.472 billion lb. of CO2 emissions eliminated by Intellihot products and services, a 30% increase from 2021 and equivalent to the amount of CO2 emissions generated by 828,017 gas vehicles driven for a year
  • 1448.6 million therms of energy saved with Intellihot products and services
  • Intellihot has a goal of increasing the amount of CO2 emissions eliminated by 50% this year, due in large part to the installation of Electron units.

Since the Electron’s introduction in February 2023, hundreds of units have been ordered nationwide for replacement and new construction projects. Each order represents the elimination of one or more natural gas water heaters from service.

With “Endless Progress” as the company’s mantra, Intellihot is already working toward achieving (and surpassing) its target of 50% higher carbon emissions savings.
