Industries & Services

Solution Pathway

Industries and services encompass technological innovations, new systems, and upgrades that reduce the energy intensity and direct emissions from manufacturing and processing within various industrial and service sub-sectors. Industrial sub-sectors include pharmaceutical, agricultural, inorganic chemical, fiber, rubber, petrochemical, plastic, textile, leather, metal, mineral, and cement production. Service sub-sectors include agriculture, forestry, and fisheries processing, as well as water utilities. By implementing renewable energy sources and energy-efficient technologies, the energy-intensive nature of industries and services can be mitigated, significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Reducing emissions from industry and service sub-sectors requires a multi-faceted approach, including adopting renewable energy sources, improving energy efficiency, and investing in innovative technologies. Collaboration between industries and governments is essential to implement these solutions at scale.
