Recently there has been more and more in the media about hydrogen as a future fuel. These discussions often talk about hydrogen using a colour coding – which has the potential to confuse an already…

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…

I’ve previously talked about the challenges of finding an energy source for industries needing a source of concentrated energy such as aviation or even space flight . In my discussion I highlighted…

In the quest for sustainable industrial practices, compressed air systems (CAS) have emerged as a prime target for energy efficiency improvements. These systems, vital to many manufacturing processes,…

In today's energy landscape, one of the most pressing challenges is reducing greenhouse gas emissions, particularly from energy-intensive industries like chemical manufacturing. With climate change…

As Europe marches steadily toward its 2050 Net Zero goal, the pursuit of clean hydrogen production stands at the forefront of decarbonizing its energy landscape. Hydrogen, a versatile energy carrier,…

As energy costs sky-rocket and industries struggle to survive, EMB3Rs can make a difference. Austria-based researchers reveal how the platform is set to help companies cost-effectively convert waste…

Heat Roadmap Europe provides the data that engineers need to decarbonise heating and cooling systems. Meet the project that has inspired EMB3Rs and is redesigning our energy sector. When Danish Prime…

Compressed Air: the 4th Utility Without knowing who has invented this phrase, e.g. David Andrews from Sullair used it in a recent blog and it is even mentioned at wikipedia, it clearly indicates the…
