SUMMARY:HILT CRC public webinar: Decarbonising industrial process heat – renewable solutions for heavy industry
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a discussion on the future of industrial heat in Australia\, led by Dr Keith Lovegrove\, Managing Director of ITP Thermal and principal author of the new CSIRO-commissioned report The Australian Industrial Process Heat Market – Towards Zero Emissions. \nThis report presents a comprehensive picture of the market for process heat and how renewable heat solutions can support the decarbonisation of process heat – which makes up 20% of Australia’s end-use energy – across key sectors including alumina\, iron and steel\, and cement production. \nWith heat use in industry valued at $10 billion annually and gas prices likely to continue to rise\, this webinar is valuable for those seeking economically viable emissions-reducing pathways in heavy industry. Attendees will gain insights into sector-specific needs\, as well as cost comparisons for electrification\, bioenergy\, solar thermal and other alternatives. \nAgenda \n\nWelcome and introduction – Prof. Peter Ashman\, University of Adelaide and Research Leader\, HILT CRC Program 3 (Cross-Cutting Technologies)\nDecarbonising industrial process heat – Dr Keith Lovegrove\, Managing Director\, ITP Thermal – 30 min\nHILT CRC perspectives for research and industry – Assoc. Prof. John Pye\, Australian National University and leader\, HILT CRC Project RP2.008 Lost production and variability – 10 min\nQ&A.\n\n\n  \n\nSPEAKERS\nDr Keith Lovegrove\, Managing Director\, ITP Thermal\n \nKeith Lovegrove is the Managing Director of ITP Thermal. He has 30 years of experience in renewable energy R&D and analysis combined with 15 years of teaching experience in undergraduate and postgraduate courses in Energy Systems and Systems Engineering. He was previously the leader of the Solar Thermal Group at the Australian National University. In that role\, he was the lead inventor and design and construction team leader of the 500m2 Big Dish solar concentrator. \nKeith is Australia’s alternative executive committee representative at the IEA SolarPACES program and a member of the University of Adelaide’s Centre for Energy Technology advisory board. He also serves on the Australian Renewable Energy Agency’s advisory panel. Keith holds a B.Sc.\, first-class honours\, and a PhD from ANU. \n  \n\nAssociate Professor John Pye\, The Australian National University\n \nJohn Pye is an Associate Professor in the School of Engineering at the Australian National University. His background is mechanical engineering with an emphasis on thermal energy systems including system design\, heat transfer\, non-imaging optics\, computational fluid dynamics\, thermodynamics and simulation. His recent focus is on system-level design optimisation\, heavy industrial decarbonisation\, fluidised bed ironmaking and biomass gasification. \nJohn currently leads two projects: a project on de-risking hydrogen ironmaking with funding from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA)\, as well as a project on the use of variable renewable energy sources in heavy industrial processes\, with funding from HILT CRC\, where he serves in the Steering and Education\, Training & Adoption Committees. \nJohn previously established the ANU course ‘Industrial Efficiency and Decarbonisation’ and currently convenes ‘Engineering Thermodynamics’. In the ANU Institute of Climate Energy and Disaster Solutions\, he leads the Industrial Decarbonisation cluster. His PhD was at the University of New South Wales under the supervision of Em Prof Graham Morrison\, on the topic of thermal modelling of the Compact Linear Fresnel Reflector\, which was later commercialised by a French company\, AREVA. His first postdoc was at ANU\, working on the structural and optical design of the ANU ‘SG4’ Big Dish concentrator. \n  \n\nProfessor Peter Ashman\, University of Adelaide and Research Leader\, HILT CRC Program 3 (Cross-Cutting Technologies)\n \nAs well as leading HILT CRC’s Cross-Cutting Technologies Program\, Peter is Deputy Dean (Performance and Infrastructure) of the Faculty of Engineering Computer and Mathematical Sciences at the University of Adelaide. As a senior member of the University of Adelaide’s Centre for Energy Technology\, his current research interests are in the fields of biomass utilisation\, bioenergy and solar thermal energy. He works on the development of new processes and technologies in the field of solar gasification. Earlier in his career\, he co-led a program in the CRC for Clean Power from Lignite\, focusing on the fluidised-bed gasification of Victorian and South Australian low-rank coals for the high-efficiency generation of electricity via Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle. \n  \n\n
