Save the environment from C02 emissions with Backer Switch

At Norske Backer, we want to help others make the transition from heating solutions using fossil fuels to using electricity. We call this solution Backer Switch. An inspection of your facility will quickly reveal the possibility of this. Backer Switch is all about finding a solution that suits your process and transition to greener energy.

Backer Switch consists of various phases, where our skilled design engineers use their experience and expertise to find the best possible solution for you.

In the first phase, we will carry out an inspection to map out the possibilities. Based on this inspection, we move on to phase two, where our design engineers draw up an offer with specific alternative solutions for your particular installation. The focus is on replacing only the heating components instead of having to rebuild the entire system. Something that is cost-effective, requires less time and is more sustainable in the form of less production.

Furthermore, in phase three, we will pass on a report and recommendation to you, so that you can assess the way forward based on this. If you choose to go for our solution, our skilled production staff will specially produce the components we have agreed on.

Progress with Backer Switch project

Step 3: Recommendation and report
In phase three, we will send you a report and recommendation so that you can consider the way forward based on this.

If you choose to proceed with us, our skilled production staff will start production of the necessary products, before we come to you to install the product and make the necessary changes.

Frequently asked questions

What if my facility is old or complex?

We then dimension the solution and components to fit the existing installation and recommend any necessary adaptations.

Timeline depends on facility and scope. You get estimated progress in the quote.

Yes - many start with one line/subsystem to validate gains before rollout.

  • Liquid heating (water, oil, glycol, etc.)
  • Air and gas heating (duct heating, heating coils, drying processes)
  • Heating of tank, boilers and flow-through heaters.
  • Upgrades in existing facilities where fossil fuels are gradually replaced
  • Deep professional environment: Close interaction between sales, design and production environments ensures fast iterations and high delivery quality.
  • Tailoring in practice: We manufacture customized heating elements and complete subsystems for liquid and air heating.
  • Experience across industries: Process industry, maritime applications, oil and gas - and more.
  • Cost-effective: Focus on component replacement rather than full rebuild.
  • Time-saving: Standardized process with a quick path from inspection to recommendation.
  • Sustainable: Switching to electric heating reduces greenhouse gas emissions.
  • Tailor-made: Solutions adapted to the process, with high quality and a long service life.
