Guidehouse Research Estimates Global Market for Industrial Electric Heating Will Grow to Over $30 Billion by 2033
Electrification of high temperature processes will be a key driver of industrial decarbonization BOULDER, Colo., July 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — A new report from Guidehouse Research examines the global market for electric heating capacity additions and equipment revenue for high temperature industrial processes. Approximately half of industrial heat demand is for thermal processes that operate at temperatures above 400°C. These processes typically occur in hard-to-abate sectors such as iron and steel, basic chemicals, cement and lime, nonferrous metals, and glass production, all of which rely on fossil fuel combustion to supply most of their thermal energy needs. According to a new report from Guidehouse Research, annual electric heating capacity additions for high temperature industrial processes are expected to increase globally from 4,136 MW in 2024 to 9,482 MW in 2033, rising at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.7%. Revenue over the same period is expected to grow from $11.3 billion to $30.6 billion, representing a CAGR of 11.7%. 'Approaches to decarbonizing high temperature heat have often focused on combustion-based pathways such as carbon capture, hydrogen, or biomass,' says Peter Marrin, principal research analyst with Guidehouse Research. 'However, a growing body of evidence suggests that electrification of high temperature processes will be a key driver of industrial decarbonization. Beyond existing applications, pilot and demonstration projects in cement, chemicals, and other sectors have shown that technically, electrification could satisfy a much greater share of industrial heat demand than it does today.' Advantages of direct electrification for heavy industry include improvements to process efficiency, significant reductions in energy-related emissions when using low carbon electricity sources, and lower maintenance costs. Important co-benefits from electrification include potential contributions to grid flexibility and improvements to achievable carbon capture rates for unavoidable process emissions. On the other hand, the gap between electricity and fossil fuel prices paid by energy-intensive industries remains a major challenge—as does the long lifetime of industrial assets and the sophistication of their production processes, which consist of multiple integrated heating stages with complex interactions between material and energy flows, according to the report. The report, Electrification of High Temperature Heat, provides market report analyses for electric heating capacity additions and equipment revenue for high temperature industrial processes from 2024 through 2033.

Meanwhile, temperatures in Northern Ireland are set to reach around 25C over the weekend. Data from the Met Office forecasts temperatures to reach 26 degrees and to rise over the coming days. Overnight temperatures on Friday is expected to be around 15 degrees before another hot day on Saturday when the mercury could reach 30 degrees. Friday gets off to a warm and sunny start for many ☀️ Low cloud and fog may push into some Irish Sea coastal regions, but will gradually burn back during the morning — Met Office (@metoffice) July 10, 2025 The HSE has said that people most at risk during hot weather include: – Babies and young children – People over 65 and those with underlying health conditions, including heart and breathing problems as well as Alzheimer's disease and dementia – People who spend a lot of time outside or in hot places – such as those who work outdoors or the homeless – are also at high risk. The advice for staying cool indoors is: – Turn off lights and appliances not in use as they generate heat – Close windows that face the sun during the day and open them at night when temperatures drop – Close curtains in rooms that are exposed to the sun, sprinkle water over the skin, or keep a damp cloth on the back of the neck – Use an electric fan (but only if the temperature is below 35C). Outdoors, people should: – Stay in the shade – Avoid being outside, if possible, between 11am and 3pm – the hottest part of the day – Wear light and loose-fitting clothing that covers the skin – Wear a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses – Regularly apply a UVA and UVB water-resistant sunscreen to skin that is not covered, using factor 30-plus for adults and 50-plus for children. People are also advised to drink plenty of fluids. Water or oral rehydration sachets are considered the best option.
