About Us
We design and integrate high-performance thermal systems using Swedish engineering and local manufacturing in Chile.
Swedish engineering with local DNA
Scanditec is an engineering firm specializing in the electrification of thermal energy. We design, integrate, and implement solutions for heating, cooling, domestic hot water, and thermal processes using high-efficiency heat pumps, automation, and smart monitoring.
We combine world-class European technology with local engineering to develop projects that reduce energy consumption, lower CO₂ emissions, and improve our clients’ operational efficiency. More than just supplying equipment, we design and integrate complete thermal systems, supporting our clients from conceptual engineering through implementation, commissioning, monitoring, and long-term support.

Rodrigo Fuentes
Operations and Engineering Manager
An engineer specializing in energy systems, automation, and energy efficiency, with a professional career spent primarily in Sweden and Chile. His experience includes project management, the design of efficient systems based on heat pumps, thermal and hydraulic power generation, automation, and energy management.
In Sweden, he served as an energy strategist and head of real estate infrastructure, participating in projects related to BeBo, a network spearheaded by the Swedish Energy Agency, and collaborating with GodaHus y Linnaeus University in applied research, technology assessment, and the optimization of energy systems.
He later led a research and development project in Chile, supported by CORFO and the University of Santiago de Chile, focused on energy-efficient solutions using heat pumps and on adapting Swedish knowledge and methodologies to Chilean market conditions.
He currently heads Scanditec's Operations and Engineering division, developing integrated heating systems for homes, residential buildings, commercial facilities, and larger-scale projects.
