The collaboration combines the Japanese giant’s heat pump and air conditioning systems with EVHACS’ patented EV charging technology, creating a single, compact unit capable of charging electric vehicles along with heating and cooling.

Ciaran Moody, president Mitsubishi Electric Ireland, said it was a major leap forward in sustainable building technology.

Moody went on: “We are proud that our Irish team is at the forefront of this innovation – pioneering the future of smart, connected homes and businesses by combining two critical technologies into one intelligent system. This solution reflects Mitsubishi Electric’s commitment to driving the energy transition through practical, scalable innovation.”

By intelligently sharing available electrical capacity between heating, cooling and EV charging functions, the system helps prevent overload, avoids grid upgrades and ensures optimal performance even during peak demand.

“Customers are looking for smarter, simpler ways to adopt low-carbon technologies,” continued Moody.

“By partnering with EVHACS, we’re creating a solution that delivers on both convenience and sustainability. It’s a major leap forward in how we think about the connected home and workplace.”

“This is about convergence,” said Jeff Aherne, CEO of EVHACS. “Our mission has always been to make clean energy technologies more accessible and practical. With Mitsubishi Electric, we’re making it easier than ever for people to decarbonise their homes, retail or commercial buildings, and vehicles – all in one step.”

Aherne went on: “We’ve always believed that heating and mobility infrastructure should evolve together. Our partnership with Mitsubishi Electric proves that bold, collaborative innovation can deliver smarter, greener solutions that genuinely move the needle on climate action.”
