Phase-out of fossil fuels: SINTEF develops a novel high temperature heat pump

In the face of the most recent and drastic climate report of the UN, the reduction of our fossil fuel consumption is a "must" in order to limit the impact of global warming. However, many industrial processes require fossil fuel in order to supply process heat and without a substitution for this supply chain it will be unlikely that we … Read more
