About

Our story

WSE Turbo Technologies is the result of a crucial meeting in 2019 between two companies —Weel & Sandvig and Ecergy. Contact was made to explore the potential of using micro turbine technology in heat pump applications, which brought about a shared vision of bringing a new generation of industrial heat pumps to market.

We are an outstanding team of engineers with decades of experience in design, production, and deployment of turbo machinery, as well as implementation of energy optimizations across a wide range of industries worldwide.

The Team
