Accelerating competitive decarbonization

The science is clear: the last decade has been warmer than any decade in the past 125,000 years.

At the same time, we are in an energy crisis with soaring prices and an urgent need for countries to strengthen energy security. The good news is that it is not too late to take action.

We provide a clear guide for companies to strengthen their competitive advantage through decarbonization, demonstrating how a political framework can accelerate the transition and help meet the Paris Agreement goals. The solutions are available now, and many technologies have short payback times. Using our energy more intelligently will enable faster, more affordable CO₂ reductions.
Energy efficiency

Energy efficiency must take center stage and work in harmony with the build-out of renewables to meet our climate goals, ensure energy security, boost the economy, and transform the way energy is governed and consumed.
Digitalization

Digitalization will both strengthen and challenge the future energy system. Maximizing the energy-saving benefits requires minimizing the negative environmental impact through highly efficient data infrastructure.
Urbanization

Urbanization is driving global population growth in cities. Discover how energy efficiency and smart solutions can help decarbonize cities and combat climate change.
Electrification

Electrification is key to lowering fossil energy consumption and accelerating the build-out of renewables. A fully electrified system can reduce final energy consumption by up to 40%.
Integrated energy systems

Creating smart energy systems that optimize the synergy between how to produce and use energy can help us reach our decarbonization goals.
Energy and water

The mutual dependence of energy and water and the increasing global demand for each has an enormous impact on economic growth, environmental sustainability, and our future.
