Decarbonisation scenarios for heavy industry sectors

Thursday 11 May 2023,  14h – 17 h

Venue: Palmstedtssalen, Chalmers Conference Centre

Heavy industry sectors (mainly steel, cement and chemicals) that supply the most basic materials for modern lifestyle and infrastructures, are responsible for 45% of total energy system emissions. The decarbonisation of these sectors is thus critical to align with the Paris targets but also a complex challenge. Heavy industries have gained increasing attention over the past decade in the climate agenda as illustrated by the number of scenario analysis and roadmaps they have been dedicated. Such scenarios take place at multiple scales (national, regional, international) and can be conducted by different actors. This side-event session will present some recent findings on decarbonisation scenarios for heavy industry sectors and will be the opportunity to discuss driving forces, scenario archetypes and methodologies.

Confirmed speakers:

  • Steel industry: Chris Bataille, IDDRI.org and Simon Fraser University
  • Petrochemicals: Ylva Kloo, Wuppertal
  • Ammonia: Antoine Deswaziere, Ademe

This session is open and free of charge.
