Welcome to Elwa Energysavers! I am Jan Antonides, the CEO and Founder of Elwa Energysavers, where we specialize in manufacturing energy-efficient electric instantaneous water heaters and LED lighting. With a robust background in electrical engineering, plumbing, and building automation systems (BMS), I have been at the forefront of designing, producing, and supplying innovative solutions for commercial projects in the Asia-Pacific region since 2008. My journey in the energy efficiency sector spans over 15 years, during which I've led Elwa International BV and Elwa Installatietechniek BV in the Netherlands. My expertise extends to successfully completing large design and construct installations for notable venues like the Melkweg Theater in Amsterdam. Prior to my Australian venture, I contributed as an electrical engineer for the Amsterdam City Hall and Opera House, gaining valuable insights into building optimization, climate control, and large heat-pumps. My mission at Elwa Energysavers is to deliver high-quality, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly products and services. I am dedicated to meeting the diverse needs and expectations of our clients. Let's connect and explore the endless possibilities of sustainable energy solutions together! 💡🌏 #Innovation #Sustainability #EnergyEfficiency #CEO #Founder
Manufacturing energy efficient electric instantaneous water heaters in Germany and since 2008 in Adelaide, developed a temperature controlled/limited range for Australia and New Zealand meeting the latest plumbing codes. Due to high energy efficiency choosen for many Government projects, schools, Uni's, Tafe colleges, mining camps, shop fit-outs etc.
Manufacturing of highly energy efficient electric and electronic instantaneous water heaters
500 mljn Euro project started by the Dutch Government in the early 80's to employ people in the building industry during a time of high unemployment, Involved during design stage from 1982-1985 and on site in management and engineering of all building services, electrical, mechanical, BMS, hydraulics. As the project brief allowed all new technologies never used before it was a very interesting time and I learned a lot about all building services (being electrical engineer by trade) especially as the City of Amsterdam pulled the plug after the initial budget was overspend by appr. 100% a year before completion. Contractors didn't finish their work and didn't support it not being paid anymore, so all the fine-tuning had to be done in house. For example heating and cooling distracting energy from Amstel river water all year round with heat pumps, solar hot water, first Sauter (Swiss) BMS system with large main-frame computer etc. techniques that were revolutionary at the time.
