It uses public-private sector collaboration to achieve the policies, innovations and investments required in the real economy to reach 2030 transition targets and a net-zero world by 2050. Expected 1500+ in-person attendees and a digital audience of 2000+.
As the largest C-level B2B convening alongside COP, World Climate Summit facilitates the exchange of best practices and innovations across vital sectors crucial to decarbonisation efforts in the areas of energy, transport, buildings, industry, finance and nature.
LR's Maritime Decarbonisation Hub (MDH) will be joining a panel discussion on day two of the World Climate Summit (December 8th, 10:30-11:15am) to discuss ‘Turning Challenges into Opportunities - Decarbonising Hard-To-Abate Sectors.’ Heavy industry, such as steel cement, glass, chemicals, and transport sectors, such as shipping and aviation are significant contributors to global GHG emissions. Which technological innovations and surrounding business models will bring those sectors on a path to net-zero emissions?
