How we quote an ElectraTherm ORC: real data for real-world outputs

We often get asked how we put together an estimate for an ElectraTherm ORC. Here is the process we follow, based on a recent real enquiry.

1. Understanding your heat

It starts with a standard questionnaire. The client tells us about the heat they have available, including temperatures and flows.

2. Modelling with the ElectraTherm Smarter Tool

We enter that data into the ElectraTherm Smarter Tool. It is built on over 2 million hours of real-world fleet runtime, data from the factory test cell, and AI modelling, so the figures reflect how machines actually perform in the field.

3. Five years of local weather

ORC output depends on ambient temperature, so we take the site location and pull the previous five years of data from the nearest weather station. We plot the weekly highest, lowest and average ambient temperatures to give best, worst and average output figures.

4. A return on investment you can trust

Those weekly figures are then used to produce the ROI on the investment. The proposal includes the Smarter Tool output, so you can see exactly where the numbers come from.

Under promise, over deliver

When we give an estimate, the machine will hit, and often exceed, the stated power output. Real-world data, for real-world outputs.
