PROCESS AUTOMATION
Industrial energy strategies are changing faster than ever. Rising fuel costs, tightening emissions standards, and the global push toward electrification are accelerating the need for flexible and future-ready heating technologies. Hybrid heating from Honeywell Thermal Solutions gives you a strategic way forward to reduce emissions, manage energy costs and improve operational control without compromising production.
Honeywell helps you transition at your pace. You can blend electric, gas and hydrogen-ready combustion technologies in one integrated system and choose the best energy source for your application at any time. This is especially important when 100% electric heat is not a feasible option for high-production, energy-intensive manufacturing.
What is Hybrid Heating
Hybrid Heating combines electric heaters and fuel-based combustion systems in one unified architecture. Intelligent controls decide which energy source to use based on load demand, cost, availability or sustainability goals.
This approach allows you to:
Reduce reliance on a single fuel source
Cut CO₂ and NOx emissions
Improve temperature uniformity and precision
Manage energy costs dynamically
Prepare for hydrogen and renewable electricity adoption
You gain flexibility in how you generate heat, without compromising productivity.
Why Hybrid Heating Matters
Striking a balance between environmental sustainability, cost efficiency and performance with hybrid heating solutions.
Lower Emissions Without Operational Risk
Electrification reduces emissions but may not meet all temperature, power or process requirements. Hybrid solutions allow plants to move toward sustainability targets while maintaining reliability and output.
Fuel-Flexibility in a Volatile Energy Market
Energy markets fluctuate. Natural gas supply can be uncertain. Regulations shift fast. Hybrid Heating lets you switch between energy sources immediately, helping you respond to real-world conditions
Improved Thermal Performance
Electric Electric heat provides tight control and uniformity. Combustion supports high load and peak demand. Hybrid heating uses each at its best, improving thermal efficiency, product quality and scrap reduction
Future-Ready Architecture
Hybrid systems support hydrogen blending, renewable electricity and long-term decarbonisation strategies. You upgrade once and evolve over time.
