Record-breaking performance in solar heating: 325,000 litres of oil a year saved Peak performances, new records, shining medals – that’s what makes the Olympic Games so fasci- nating, time and time again. For ELCO, too! In the preliminaries to the Summer Olympics in China in 2008, ELCO succeeded in establishing a “personal best”: its biggest solar heating pro- ject to date, a warm water system in the Olympic Village in Peking. The installation comprised 2,187 AURON DF vacuum-tube collectors with a total area of 7,500 m² – and that in a record-breaking time of only 6 weeks. The installation, split up into 5 individual systems, supplied 18,000 athletes with some 860,000 litres of warm water daily. And as it turned out, the collec- tors also offered welcome shade. Than0ks to the latest technology, almost 2,978 tonnes of CO2 emissions can be saved every year.
