TC-TEAS®

Integrated Modular Thermal Technology for Thermo-Active Building Construction

Research and Development Program | TGT R&D

TC-TEAS® is an experimental distributed energy platform currently under research and validation, developed by TGT R&D for the controlled conversion of electrical energy into thermal energy and the integrated management of energy flows in high-inertia thermo-active building systems.

Distributed Energy Platform Architecture

TC-TEAS® operates as a distributed energy platform in which:

electrical thermal generation, air-to-water thermo-fluid exchange, and climate control form a single integrated system.

The system is designed to operate continuously across energy production, regulation, and distribution.

Modular Architecture

The platform consists of integrated modular units that include:

  • electrical thermal generation
  • air-to-water thermo-fluid exchange
  • low-velocity ventilation
  • indoor air filtration
  • multi-zone control
  • monitoring and supervision
  • operational safety

The modular architecture enables:

  • high scalability
  • distributed configuration
  • localized maintenance
  • installation flexibility

Integrated Energy Distribution

The system uses a structural energy distribution based on:

  • construction cavities
  • vertical technical cavities
  • underfloor systems
  • integrated building volumes

This architecture promotes direct interaction between the energy platform and the building mass.

Operational Principle

TC-TEAS® uses tempered low-velocity air and thermo-fluid exchange for the controlled management of thermal energy.

The system behavior is based on:

  • distributed thermal storage
  • dynamic regulation of energy flows
  • stabilization of thermal cycles
  • continuous operation
