Policy Priorities for Industrial Decarbonisation
The Policy Team works with partners in industry, academia and the UK and devolved governments, to identify key priority areas where policy and regulatory action can help to accelerate industrial decarbonisation.
Bringing together insightsf from a year of extenstive stakeholder engagement, we recently published the IDRIC Policy Synthesis Report 2022.
The report outlines seven priority areas where policy and regulatory change can make a difference in supporting industrial decarbonisation:
- Business model support for scaling up low-carbon technologies
- Enabling fuel switching and electrification
- Supporting Infrastructure for transport and storage of electricity, hydrogen and CO2
- Timely planning, consenting, and permitting processes
- Comprehensive carbon accounting and standards
- Resilient low-carbon supply chains
- Net zero skills and workforce
The report can be downloaded HERE.
Throughout 2023, we will convene a programe of thematic policy roundtables and policy forums to develop further practical recommendations in these areas. For further info, please get in touch with the IDRIC Policy Team.
