Research and development
In the name of innovation
The high technological and innovative content of the i-TES proposal is the result of decades of research and development.
Working alongside prestigious partners and performing leading roles in research projects, i-TES attracts talent and resources and puts them at the service of energy innovation.
PCMs for energy efficiency
i-TES has developed technologies and skills to exploit in a new way a particular property of PCM, the phase change. These are materials with high energy density that greatly facilitate thermoregulation, useful properties to make thermal storage and to develop energy efficiency solutions. These skills require continuous updating and in-depth studies on new and performing materials.

i-TES and its team
The future of energy efficiency also depends on technology, the way it evolves over time, the combinations it generates with respect to new materials and approaches. The inventions and patents of i-TES are the result of the work of an exceptional team, directed by professionals with many years of experience in consulting in energy efficiency and management and technical plant management.
Our patents
Patent 1
The first patent covers a heating device, specifically an indoor heating terminal for domestic or industrial use. The patent application was filed on Nov. 13, 2019, and the final description, following the request for claim amendment, was filed on Nov. 13, 2020. the date of grant is Oct. 21, 2021.
[Patent number 102019000021033 - HEATING TERMINAL DEVICE CONTAINING A PHASE CHANGE MATERIAL].
Patent 2
The second patent concerns a thermal storage device, specifically a latent heat thermal storage battery. The difference with other batteries is in the charging mode, i.e., in addition to classical hydronic or electrical charging, direct charging with heat pump gas is added to this battery for both heating and cooling. This allows direct coupling of the PCM battery with the source maximizing exchange efficiency and minimizing losses during the process. The patent application was filed on Jan. 22, 2021, and the final description, following the claim amendment request, was filed on Oct. 21, 2022. The grant date was Jan. 26, 2023. [Patent number 102021000001091 - LATENT HEAT THERMAL STORAGE BATTERY].
