Zero Emissions Heat Technologies for Industry

Video Description

Industrial heat, often operating behind the scenes of our modern society, plays a pivotal role in our everyday life. From the food we eat to the buildings we live in, our everyday life would look very different without industrial heat. But with this utility comes a sizeable emissions footprint. In this video, we'll uncover the hidden world of industrial heat - From the intense furnaces forging the steel in our skyscrapers to the more gentle heat pasteurizing our food, we'll explore the diverse spectrum of industrial heat and the industries that rely on it the most. We'll explore how this crucial utility, traditionally reliant on fossil fuels, is now at the forefront of a significant transformation. we'll discover a world of innovation where the once fossil-fuel-dependent giant is turning a new leaf. Join me as we venture into the realm of renewable heat technologies. We're talking geothermal wonders, cutting-edge heat pumps, and more – innovations that are not only slashing emissions but are revolutionizing how we think about and use industrial heat.
