Kjeldsberg Kaffebrenneri in Trondheim is working with SINTEF Energy Research to study fully electric industrial coffee roasting. The change could replace the biofuel currently used and cut the emissions associated with the process.
The preliminary project, supported by Enova with 700,000 Norwegian kroner, will assess energy needs, technical solutions and the impact on coffee quality. The proposal is still at the study stage, but it could pave the way for cleaner production and set an example for other roasteries.
