The energy demand of the industry stands for around 1/3 of the worlds climate gas emissions and for a successful decarbonization of this sector new technologies need to be phased in. Today's industry moves towards an electrified energy system based on wind, solar and other renewable sources, and more frequent recovery of industrial waste heat.
Utilizing these sources efficiently by implementing industrial heat pumps (HTHP) is highly attractive since it can replace fossil fuel based energy and enable the industry to operate with significantly reduced emission of climate gases. However, there are challenges connected with implementing heat pump technology, especially in high temperature applications like industrial processes and district heating. For example, there is a need for technical innovations to achieve lower specific investment costs and increased energy efficiency while maintaining technical feasibility and stable operation.
This conference on High Temperature Heat Pumps will address these challenges and show successful concepts and cases where heat pump technology was implemented.
