Green alternatives for gas-powered manufacturing processes
High temperature industrial heat pumps have the potential to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in industries that require temperatures between 100 and 180 degrees Celsius. Such technology represents low-hanging fruit aiming to reduce both greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption. Research anticipates that new heat pump technologies will enable reductions in industrial energy consumption of between 40 and 70 percent, facilitated by the recovery of low-temperature waste heat.
The American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) has reported that industrial heat pumps can cut the energy use associated with industrial process heat by up to one third and enable CO2 savings of between 30-43 million tons per year. The European Council for an Energy Efficient Economy (ECEEE) has also reported that based on average Austrian energy prices, cost reductions in the range of 12–50 % can be achieved.
