Decarbonizing energy-intensive industries

Energy-intensive industries like steel, cement, chemicals and long-distance transportation, are often referred to as hard-to-abate. They account for approximately 30% of the carbon emissions at global scale, so tackling their emissions is essential to reach net zero.

But the path will not be paved with one single idea or technology.

Explore the full range of insights that will help you grasp how we can help these hard-to-abate sectors on their path to decarbonization.

Sustainable Aviation Fuel

As a direct replacement for conventional fuel, SAF is an easy decarbonization measure that will help the aviation industry decarbonize immediately.

Power-to-X

To lower emissions in energy-intensive industries and long-distance transportation, we need technologies such as electrolysis in Power-to-X processes technology.

Renewable fuels

Renewable fuels will help us decarbonize heavy-duty transportation, and we’ll need proven technologies for their production. Luckily, these already exist.

Hydrogen

The abundance of hydrogen coupled with its potential for sustainable methods of production, positions it as a promising solution in the global energy transition. 

Ammonia

Ammonia is considered a gamechanger in decarbonizing the maritime industry and other energy-intensive industries where direct electrification is not an option.
