18th – 20th May 2021
We are delighted to partner with Climate Action for the Industry Transition Summit taking place on the 18 & 20 May 2021.
Industry accounts for roughly 30% of global CO2 emissions and as demand for products including steel, cement, chemicals and precious metals is set to increase, industrial actors will have to cut emissions sharply in order to achieve the 1.5-degree scenario.
The Industry Transition Summit will bring together investors, policy makers and business leaders to share key decarbonisation solutions for the hard to abate sectors and heavy industries with a view to enabling industrial decarbonisation over the next decade.
Event Aims:
- Learn how governments are tackling industrial decarbonisation as a key component of National Determined Contributions ahead of COP26
- Support the creation of policy frameworks that encourage investment in low carbon industrial sectors
- Identify Technological solutions for industrial decarbonisation: hydrogen, heat pumps, CCUS.
- Create market opportunities and proactive regulatory framework for low carbon industrial products
