Munters, a global leader in energy-efficient climate control, previously installed their desiccant  dehumidification systems at the Colin Vincent Centre for Battery Technology at the University of St Andrews.  

The University of St Andrews has established itself as a leader in battery research with the inauguration of the Colin Vincent Centre for Battery Technology at Eden Campus. This state-of-the-art facility is pivotal in advancing the development of sustainable energy solutions, particularly in battery chemistries. 


Munters designed, installed and commissioned a turnkey battery dry room that includes HVAC plant installation, commissioning, and maintenance. The dry room operates at dewpoints between -40°C and -50°​​C, ​​​and includes our Munters DSS 1300 desiccant dehumidification system that has been fully equipped with Munters Green PowerPurge heat recovery system, which reduces the reactivation heater power by approximately 30%.  

Professor John Irvine says: “The key advantage to working with Munters is they have a proven track record. We’re very happy with what we’ve done with Munters, and would recommend them again.”
