Australian industry energy transitions initiative
We’re bringing Australian industry together to accelerate action towards achieving net zero supply chains by mid century. As the world economy decarbonises and countries and companies set goals for net zero emission by 2050, the ability of Australia’s industrial sectors to transition is of real significance for the Australian economy and the country’s ability to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement.
