VPhase device trials in social housing sector

A VPhase product story

Edited by the Buildingtalk editorial team Feb 2, 2010

VPhase has signed an agreement with a North West Housing Association to trial its new voltage optimisation device.

The trial will see the low cost VPhase unit installed in a number of tenants' homes to monitor its ease of installation, and to independently measure its energy and carbon saving capability.

The low cost VPhase unit reduces and stabilises the incoming voltage to homes and manages it to a stable level, normally 220V in the UK.

The result is considerable reductions to electricity costs, reduced wasted energy and lower carbon emissions.

It can be easily fitted by a qualified electrician, requires no maintenance and will instantly save energy across a wide range of appliances throughout the home.

Dr Lee Juby, CEO, VPhase commented: "We are already working with a number of major UK utilities to introduce VPhase units into homes nationwide".

"Not only will the VPhase unit help social housing providers meet stringent carbon reduction targets, it will also help social housing become even more affordable by reducing emissions and energy bills".
