Achieving net-zero-carbon in industry
The industrial process heat sector contributes 28% of New Zealand's energy-emissions (MBIE, 2019), but represents arguably the most complex and challenging of the energy sectors to decarbonise by 2050.
Our team focuses on developing effective solutions through the smart integration of physical and digital energy technologies in the most synergistic way.
