Industrial emissions, particularly from cement, steel, chemicals, and heavy manufacturing, contribute a significant portion of global greenhouse gases. Decarbonizing these hard-to-abate sectors is critical to achieving net-zero targets. This domain equips learners to apply process optimization, energy efficiency, alternative fuels, carbon capture & storage (CCS), green hydrogen, and lifecycle analysis in industrial contexts. Students develop practical skills in sector-specific decarbonization strategies, industrial energy management, policy design, ESG reporting, and investment planning for low-carbon industry transformation.
