Heavy industry requires deep decarbonization, but the businesses in question are, for the most part, in hard-to-abate sectors such as power generation, oil and gas production, metals and mining, and chemicals. To operate, they need masses of energy which means non-carbon solutions like solar and batteries won’t work, as they don’t provide anything like the energy density required. The good news is that new technologies and fuel sources such as carbon capture, sequestration, and even green hydrogen are emerging that can help this tough sector to decarbonize.
In our latest article, Steve Deskevich, Vice President of Digital Product Management at GE Digital looks at the challenges of decarbonizing hard-to-abate heavy industry and the software that helps make it possible – efficiently and with less risk. Software, sensors and other digital tools can measure and mitigate the operational and technical risk with decarbonization activities.
- The key challenges faced
- Digital technologies that help operators understand, manage, and mitigate the risks associated with decarbonization activities
- The need to manage new revenue streams from carbon capture and sequestration
- How to optimize and scale decarbonization projects using digital solutions
