Hybridising Industrial Heat to Cut Emissions & Boost Competitiveness
From fossil fuel to flexible heat: engineering the low-carbon transformation of steel production
With mounting pressure to decarbonise heavy industry, steel manufacturers are exploring cleaner, more resilient alternatives to natural gas. This project focuses on hybridising a gas-based reheating furnace to reduce emissions while improving cost control and flexibility.
