Advancing industrial decarbonisation: How can the OECD support stakeholders’ efforts?

Dec 5, 2023 | 2:00 PM - 3:30 PM

Description

Industrial decarbonisation is essential to achieve net-zero emission goals, and requires swift and bold action from both industry actors and governments. Yet, the carbon dioxide emissions of the industry sector have remained stable over the last decade. Decarbonising industry requires tailored solutions that address specific domestic and sectoral challenges. This session will bring together stakeholder to share views on how to scale up industry decarbonisation, with a focus on regional and country aspects. Taking stock of the wide range of OECD work in this area, highlighted in its newly released brochure “Advancing Industrial Decarbonisation: An overview of OECD contributions”, the session will provide an overview of challenges related to technology, innovation, policy, and finance aspects of industry decarbonisation. It will in particular explore how multilateral dialogue, international collaboration and evidence-based analyses in a whole-of-government approach can support governments and industrial actors in the journey to net zero, aiming for a just and inclusive industry transition.
