📢 A few days ago,
@wupperinst kicked off stakeholder engagement in the #Rhine_Ruhr industrial cluster.
🔎 The region transitioned from a hard coal belt into a knowledge-based economy, hosting 10 % in European #EIIs (25% of German #GHG emissions).
💡#Stakeholders from local agencies, civil society, trade unions, industrial associations and researchers were asked to provide insights for industry’s role in the net-zero transition.

With @EU_HaDEA and
#P4Planet

#transience #industry4netzero

Are you wondering what is the role of #EnergyIntensiveIndustries (EIIs) towards a #justtransition and how #participatorymodelling can help to achieve it?

Some facts first:
▪️#EIIs (steel, cement, chemicals..) account for 25% of global emissions
▪️ #EIIs #JustTransition might disproportionally affect #jobs and #local economies
▪️ #Models are reluctant to incorporate key #social #political and #economic aspects
