Heavy industry is an important part of the European economy and boosts European industrial competitiveness.
However, these sectors are amongst the highest emitters of CO2 and face increasing pressure to decarbonise and align with the EU’s climate targets. To address this challenge, the European Commission has recently launched the Clean Industrial Deal and the Industrial Decarbonisation Accelerator Act also aims to speed up industrial access to energy and decarbonisation.
According to a recent Fraunhofer IPA report on how hard-to-abate industries can achieve net zero, achieving these goals will require investment in new technologies, such as electrification of heat, carbon capture or hydrogen production. These solutions have the potential to reduce emissions while maintaining high productivity across Europe’s heavy industry and manufacturing.
Join this Euractiv Hybrid Conference to explore strategies to reduce carbon emissions in European heavy industry, while ensuring competitiveness of the sector.
Speakers to be announced soon.
