A pathway to reducing the greenhouse gas footprint in manufacturing: determinants for an economic assessment of industrial decarbonization measures

The document identifies six types of measures deemed to help achieve a reduction of the greenhouse gas footprint towards net-zero, notably in manufacturing. These measures, grouped into three categories (reduction, substitution, and compensation), differ in terms of their impact on investment and running costs. The document evaluates the identified measures from an economic point of view and assesses them with regard to necessary actions and their consequences.
