Key findings:

✨ Electrifying low- and medium-temperature #processheat – which accounts for half of industrial heat demand – shows vast potential for direct #electrification. 2/x

SMRs + heat pumps = economic breakthrough! Chemical-absorption systems transform nuclear waste heat into valuable industrial thermal energy, creating dual revenue streams for stronger business cases.

#SmallModularReactors #ProcessHeat

New study: Electricity-based technologies can increasingly replace fossil fuels in #industry – direct #electrification could meet 90% of the energy demand for #processheat not yet electrified by 🇪🇺 industry by 2035. Rapid adoption contributes to EU climate targets & strengthens competitiveness. 1/x

Chemical boilers must meet rigorous safety and efficiency standards, with new designs focusing on emissions reduction and integration with renewable heat sources.

Large-scale heat pumps & electric boilers can already deliver industrial #processheat up to 200°C and 500°C (paper production, chemical processes and the food industry). Resistance heating & electric arc furnace needed to melt metals and plastics can produce temperatures up to 1 800°C. 4/x

As further technologies reach maturity & are rolled out, this could increase to cover high temperature applications ➡️ in just over a decade, direct #electrification technologies could make much of the fossil fuel currently used for #processheat obsolete. 3/x

Currently, the generation of #processheat to melt glass, produce food and forge steel is responsible for three quarters of industrial greenhouse gas #emissions in the European Union. Existing technologies could already provide much of the #energy required for process heat today. 2/x
