What are the possible pathways to carbon neutrality of different end-use sectors in general and energy-intensive industries in particular?
In this project, VITO collected the necessary data of all industries in Europe and their possible site-specific pathways within their industrial clusters in Europe. The results of these state-of-the-art process and industry cluster models are mapped into a NUTS 3-level georeferenced database (GIS). The model results and the developed geodatabase provide a systematic overview of European industrial energy and resource demand in 2030 and 2050 and outline the related potential for renewable integration in the respective European regions.
