As the title states, can EMF = I = const ?

Where did you come across that equation? emf and current are two different types of quantities. They cannot be equal. It is like saying 2 oranges = 3 elephants
 
Thats what i thought, but what if the circuit has no consumer, can the equatiuon work then ?

Thank you for your answer. I think this cleared my head.
