Antwerp – September 07, 2026 -- Skyven Technologies said its Arcturus industrial heat pump demonstration center in Texas has achieved a sustained coefficient of performance (COP) of 8.0, a gain of more than 20% over the 6.5 COP recorded at commissioning and above the target set in the company's original roadmap.
Arcturus surpasses its own commissioning benchmark through design and control upgrades
Skyven attributed the jump to improvements in system design, control algorithms and integration engineering at the Texas facility. The result confirms the ceiling performance of the Arcturus product line, which the company tailors to individual client sites, balancing COP against required temperature lift. Across its range, Arcturus delivers temperature increases of 38°C to 185°C, with corresponding COPs from 8.0 down to 2.0.
