Promoting Electrification in Foundry Industry: A Techno-economically Viable and Climate-Friendly Option

摘要

The foundry sector, as major consumer of energy, contributes to climate change. It is possible to reduce the carbon footprint of foundry industry by adopting renewable energy technologies, enhancing energy efficiency and promoting fuel switch (electrification). TERI conducted feasibility studies to replace three fossil fuel-based foundry processes with electricity-based solutions.
