The Truth Behind Boiler Efficiency | What Actually Reduces Emissions & Cost - The Boiling Point
Are electric boilers really the answer to going carbon neutral? Or is the truth behind boiler efficiency a lot more practical? In this episode of The Boiling Point, Richie Ware and Gerald Blain answer a common boiler room question: How can older boilers be replaced—or retrofitted—for efficiency and reduced emissions?
We cover:
✔️ Boiler efficiency upgrades (economizers, burner retrofits, steam traps)
✔️ Electric boilers and the hidden cost of going all-electric
✔️ Hydrogen and biofuel burners — hype vs. reality
✔️ Using steam turbines for free power generation
✔️ The truth about carbon neutral boiler solutions
If your plant is looking to cut fuel costs, lower CO2, and boost efficiency, this video will help you sort through the options.
