Analyzing Industrial Greenhouse Gas Emissions Mitigation
A webinar featuring industry experts discussing models and analysis, alternative policies, energy pricing, and areas of greatest potential industrial emissions mitigation.
Event Details
The industrial sector, which includes manufacturers of iron, steel, cement, pulp and paper, petroleum refining, organic chemicals, and nitrogenous fertilizer, is an increasingly important area of focus for national greenhouse gas emissions mitigation policies. But unlike the power sector, many of these manufacturers’ production processes are proprietary and often quite complex, with limited public access.
On Wednesday, October 16, Resources for the Future (RFF) hosted “Analyzing Industrial Greenhouse Gas Emissions Mitigation." This webinar detailed the findings of the July working paper “Modeling Industrial Sector Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reduction Policies with Plant-Level Data.” The panel discussed the models and analysis, alternative policies, energy pricing, and areas of greatest potential industrial emissions mitigation.
