实现难减工业脱碳的关键步骤

AcknowledgementsSustainable Markets InitiativeFounded by His Majesty King Charles III in 2020, as Prince of Wales, the Sustainable MarketsInitiative has become the world’s “go-to” private sector organisation on transition. Launchedin 2021, the Terra Carta serves as the Sustainable Markets Initiative’s mandate with a focus onaccelerating positive results for Nature, people and planet through real economy action.Energy Transition Task ForceBy invitation, executives from some of the world’s largest and most influential industrial, energy,and financial companies have come together to form the Energy Transition Task Force. Thistask force is charged with determining how companies from across the energy value chain,individually and collectively, can play a leading role in driving and accelerating the transition toa sustainable future.The Decarbonising Industry Working Group is one of multiple Energy Transition Task Forceworking groups that serve as a collaborative platform for member companies to identify anddevelop carbon emission abatement solutions.The Decarbonising Industry Working Group is focused on three of the hardest-to-abateindustries — steel, aluminium, and mining. Besides companies from these industries, theworking group also includes selected energy and technology companies that are interested insupporting carbon emissions abatement efforts in these industries.In total, there are 11 members in the working group: Mining companies Anglo American andRio Tinto, aluminium producer Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA), steelmaker Tata Steel, metalsproducer and trader Glencore, renewable energy producers Masdar, Orsted, Octopus Energy,and ReNew, technology company Siemens Energy, and global energy corporation bp.Oliver Wyman supported Masdar in leading this working group. Masdar CEO IntroductionMohamed Jameel Al Ramahi, Chief Executive Officer, MasdarAs the energy transition continues to gain traction, there still remains a number of obstaclespreventing it from accelerating, something that we know is needed in order to contain globalemissions to 1.5 degrees Celsius in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement.One of those obstacles is the decarbonisation of critical hard-to-abate sectors such as steel,aluminium, and mining. Altogether, these sectors contribute approximately 12% of globalcarbon dioxide emissions, representing a tremendous opportunity to significantlydrivedown emissions.1, 2With that goal in mind, Masdar, a global clean energy pioneer, is proud to be leading theDecarbonising Industry Working Group as part of the Sustainable Markets Initiative’s EnergyTransition Task Force. After bringing together leading companies from across the energy andhard-to-abate sectors, the Decarbonising Industry Working Group is now ready to launch ourfirst deliverable “How-to Guide,” focused on exploring tangible solutions for decarbonisation.I am thankful to colleagues from across the working group for sharing insights and seekingmeaningful collaboration opportunities, the Sustainable Markets Initiative leadership forbringing us together, and Oliver Wyman for their support.This work demonstrates the potential that renewable energy, energy efficiency, carbon capture,green hydrogen, and other solutions can offer in greening industries across their value chains.And it highlights the obstacles we still need to overcome to get there. One thing is clear:The decarbonisation journey can only be successful through partnership. This is what makesthe role of the Sustainable Markets Initiative so important.As we prepare for COP28 in the United Arab Emirates, where developing actionable solutionsto ensure the world meets its climate commitments will be front and centre, this guide offersa timely and informative view from industry leaders on how we can overcome what is, in manyways, one of the “final frontiers” of climate change: Decarbonising hard-to-abate sectors. Oliver Wyman CEO IntroductionNick Studer,Chief Executive Officer, Oliver Wyman andInterim Chair, Sustainable Markets Initiative’s Energy TransitionTask ForceSteel, aluminium, and mining contribute directly to around 12% of global carbon dioxideemissions.3Business leaders in these carbon-intense industries are faced with a once-in-a-generation opportunity to innovate and collectively shape the transition to a moresustainable future.The Decarbonising Industry Working Group within the Sustainable Markets Initiative bringstogether market leaders in the energy, steel, aluminium, mining, and technology sectors towork together to accelerate the transition to net zero across hard-to-abate industries. Thepremise of this group is that organisations will make greater and more efficient strides towardssustainability through collaborative efforts than by pursuing initiatives alone.These hard-to-abate industries face numerous challenges to decarbonise, includingsecuring access to renewable energy and green hydrogen at affordable scale, navigating anevolving global marketplace, and b
