From Fossil Fuels to Electrons: Revolutionising Process Heating for a Low-Carbon World
The industrial sector is at a pivotal juncture as it strives to reduce carbon emissions in alignment with global sustainability goals. Process heating, an essential element in industries like petrochemicals, food processing, automotive manufacturing, and mining, accounts for a significant portion of industrial carbon dioxide emissions. Transitioning from fossil-fuel-based systems to electric heating provides a promising pathway to achieving decarbonisation. However, this shift introduces technical and operational challenges that require innovative, well-engineered solutions.
Medium voltage (MV) electric heating and control systems, such as Watlow’s POWERSAFE™ thermal system, are emerging as practical and efficient alternatives to traditional systems. These systems address many of the complexities associated with electrification, offering a roadmap for industries seeking to modernise their heating processes and reduce their environmental impact.
