Heat Pumps Challenge Coal in Industrial Heat Market
Original: Heat Pumps Are Coming for Coal's Industrial Heat Market
Industrial heat, long dominated by coal-fired boilers, is increasingly being targeted by high-temperature heat pumps that can deliver process heat more efficiently and with far lower emissions. The shift matters because industrial heat accounts for a large share of global energy use, and electrifying it could cut costs as well as carbon output. Commenters are debating how fast the transition can scale across heavy industry.
Why now: Growing interest in electrification and decarbonisation of industrial processes is putting coal's role in industrial heat under scrutiny
