Heat pumps are considered large if they exceed capacities of 100kW. They can easily reach the one to several megawatt range with the largest units providing 35MW in a single machine. Currently…
Read Full articleAccelerating the Clean Energy Transition: An Updated Roadmap to Net Zero Emissions
The global energy landscape has undergone significant shifts since the International Energy Agency (IEA) published its landmark Net Zero by 2050 report in 2021. While energy-related CO2 emissions…
Read Full articleEnergy transition investment in Emerging Markets and Developing Countries
Emerging markets and developing economies (EM&DEs) account for nearly half of the total global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and over a third of energy-related emissions. However, the volume of…
Read Full articleTop 10 Facts about Electromagnetic Processing
Electromagnetic processing technologies use wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum that correspond to microwave, radio waves, infrared, and ultra violet to heat materials. Direct heating methods generate heat within a work piece, by either passing an electrical current through the material, or inducing an electrical current (eddy current) into the material. These technologies offer…
