Description

Join us for an essential in-person seminar that tackles one of the most pressing challenges in the journey to net zero : the decarbonising of industrial process heat. As Industry accounts for a significant share of global carbon emissions, transforming how we generate and use heat in manufacturing and production is critical. This seminar concludes a series of webinars presented over the past 18 months and brings together experts, innovators, and decision-makers to explore new and emerging technologies, policy frameworks, and practical strategies that are reshaping the industrial energy landscape. Whether you have an interest engineering, sustainability, operations, or policy, this is your opportunity to gain actionable insights and be part of the solution.
