Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Decarbonisation of the Heat Sector: Discussion

Dr. James Browne:

It is different in that, with manufacturing processes, the temperature control is very precise. Once you get up to the desired temperature, thereafter you can continue to run at that temperature. You are trying to quickly get up to, let us say, 100°C and maintain that temperature. It is a very controlled system.
