Why does NEXT consume less energy?
NEXT is engineered for cold industrial environments where traditional dehumidification loses efficiency. Here we demonstrate why the difference can reach up to 70% and what that means for your facility.
The difference begins with the technology
Both NEXT and traditional desiccant dehumidifiers are designed to dehumidify the air. The difference lies in how the technology operates, which is also why NEXT can maintain high and consistent energy efficiency as temperatures fall.
In this short animation, we demonstrate how NEXT works and why its technology differs from traditional sorption.
When comparing the technologies, the difference becomes evident
The graph illustrates the energy consumption of NEXT compared to a traditional desiccant dehumidifier at the same dehumidification capacity.
The difference is most pronounced within the temperature range of approximately +2 °C to +15 °C.
This is also the operating environment for many food processing facilities, breweries, and cold storage warehouses on a daily basis.
While a traditional desiccant dehumidifier requires increasing amounts of energy to deliver the same results, NEXT maintains its efficiency. The result is lower electricity costs without compromising dehumidification performance.
What potential savings can be achieved in your facility?
No two facilities are alike. Temperature, humidity levels, operating hours, and energy prices all influence the potential savings.
The calculator compares the energy consumption of NEXT and a traditional desiccant dehumidifier under equivalent operating conditions. Within just a few minutes, you will receive an initial estimate of the potential savings.
Please note: The calculator is based on a comparison with traditional desiccant dehumidification. If you utilize a different solution or currently have no dehumidification system in place, we are happy to assist with an individualized assessment.

Calculations provide a strong starting point. Measurements deliver definitive answers.
An estimate offers a valuable initial indication, but the most reliable basis for decision-making is obtained by taking measurements within your own facility.
Consequently, we offer the opportunity to test NEXT under real operating conditions. Throughout the test period, we monitor energy consumption, temperature, humidity, and other relevant operational data.
Following the test, we review the results together and compare them against your baseline data. This provides exact insight into the impact NEXT can deliver for your specific operations.
