NEFI Technology Talk: Electrification of Industrial Furnaces

by Oxana Schmidt

The transformation of industrial production processes towards climate neutrality requires new technological approaches, particularly in the field of industrial heat. A key lever in this context is the electrification of industrial furnaces, which makes it possible to replace fossil fuels with renewable electricity and thereby achieve a sustained reduction in emissions.

The NEFI Technology Talk, “Electrification of Industrial Furnaces”, focuses on practical implementation examples, current developments, and available technologies.

Demo Workshop: ADC Pilot Factory Showcases Innovative DC Grid Solutions

by Oxana Schmidt

The ADC Pilot Factory will demonstrate solutions for a flexible and scalable low-voltage DC grid in a semi-industrial environment. Don’t miss it!

At the Austrian DC Pilot Factory, a machine tool and an industrial robot are connected as consumer within a DC microgrid. Renewable energy is provided by a photovoltaic system, while a bidirectional charging station, together with an electric vehicle, offers energy storage capability. When required, stored energy can be fed back into the DC microgrid. The factory’s energy management system monitors, controls and optimises the overall energy flow.
