Focus
Industrial decarbonisation
System-level pathways to cut emissions from energy-intensive industry — abatement options, their cost-competitiveness against incumbents, and the route to bankable investment.
Heat electrification
Electrifying industrial and district heat — the economics of switching off fossil fuels for heat, and the role of thermal storage in buffering the variability of solar and wind.
Sustainable fuels
A 360° system view across liquid biofuels, biogases, hydrogen and e-fuels — priorities for different end-use sectors, and clarifying what makes a fuel sustainable.
