The energy and utilities sector is the driving source of power across the economy. It accounts for approximately 12% of CO2 emissions worldwide. As energy and utilities are the lifeblood of how we live and work, decarbonising this industry and shifting to clean fuels will play a fundamental role in a successful path to net zero.
This analysis focuses on the role that mobile and digital technology can play in helping power companies and others in the energy value chain to lower emissions and move to a more balanced model of energy transfer versus consumption.
This research accompanies our main report "Industry pathways to net zero: mobile and digital technology in support of industry decarbonisation", which outlines a high-level quantification of decarbonisation and associated strategies for four key industries that account for 80% of global emissions – manufacturing, power and energy, transport, and buildings.
