Manufacturing Decarbonization Is Economically Viable Across Many Industries

Our analysis of 50+ industrial sites working towards Net Zero reveals:

50% Carbon Reduction

utilizing existing, proven technologies.

60% of Organizations

see significantly reduced energy costs by decarbonizing.

€500K Energy Cost Savings

on average. Deep decarbonization goes hand in hand with short- and long-term savings.

The financial risks of site-level decarbonization are squarely in the past. The greatest risk is now inaction.

Decarbonization progress in industrial and hard-to-abate sectors has been hindered by unproven technology and significant financial risk.


But our analysis shows there are now proven technologies, relatively cheaper energy sources, and shorter payback periods that allow any organization to commit to a bold decarbonization program with confidence.
