Decarbonisation efforts worldwide, led both by industry leaders and legislation, have increased efforts to shift fossil fuel use to renewables. One way many industrial organisations can embrace this – and already have – is by shifting process heater systems from fuel-burning to electric.
As noted by Dennis Long and Roly Juliano, Watlow, “there is a sea-change occurring when it comes to process heating. Pressures to electrify all industrial processes are increasing, from governments, non-profits and business leaders alike. However, the transition from gas to electric process heating is not as simple as throwing a switch”.
This white paper presents, in broad brush strokes, how that transition can occur, and why it should happen sooner rather than later.
