BoostHEAT has developed the fusion of two familiar heating technologies, the boiler and the heat pump
About Boostheat
BOOSTHEAT SA, established in 2011, is a French energy efficiency enterprise operating in the heating sector. The company was founded by Luc Jacquet and Jean-Marc Joffroy, who leveraged their expertise to pioneer a new generation of heating solutions. The firm's core innovation is the BOOSTHEAT.20, a sophisticated gas heat pump that integrates boiler technology with a heat pump, driven by a proprietary thermal compressor. This technology was designed to deliver substantial energy savings, achieving up to 200% efficiency and potentially halving energy consumption and CO2 emissions compared to traditional condensing boilers.
Read full description
The company targets both the residential and commercial building markets, offering a product that serves as a direct replacement for older, less efficient gas boilers. The business model initially centered on the direct sale and installation of its heat pumps. However, following a period of financial restructuring and placement in receivership in late 2022, the company has pivoted its strategy. Under new leadership, BOOSTHEAT is now focused on developing a more compact and cost-effective product line, including a potential hybrid heat pump boiler, and is exploring a licensing model to commercialize its thermal compression technology with industrial partners. This strategic shift aims to broaden market access and reduce the capital intensity of its operations.
The BOOSTHEAT.20 heat pump utilizes natural gas as its primary energy source and employs CO2 as a refrigerant, positioning it as an environmentally conscious alternative. Its key differentiator lies in the thermal compressor, which enhances the efficiency of the heat pump cycle, enabling significant energy savings for end-users. The company had achieved notable milestones, including a successful IPO on the Euronext Growth Paris market in 2019. Despite facing financial headwinds leading to its delisting in 2024, the underlying thermal compression technology remains a valuable asset, forming the basis for the company's revised strategic direction toward partnerships and licensing.
