Decarbonization has become an imperative for the process industries, and energy efficiency has long been recognized an essential strategy to help achieve decarbonization. Unlike other approaches, energy efficiency inherently reduces operating costs while it decreases emissions, so it offers a positive return on investment, even without factoring in environmental benefits. The presentations in our Spring Energy Forum address three separate topics: a new DOE initiative to support energy efficiency and decarbonization in energy intensive industries, particularly in industrial systems such as steam and process heating; decarbonization through electrification; and use of hydrogen in gas turbines as another means of decarbonizing industrial processes.
