Decarbonisation through Digitalisation - Manufacturing made smarter and greener with technology

Manufacturing is responsible for 17% of the UK’s greenhouse gas emissions. The decarbonisation of manufacturing is the industry’s biggest challenge - but it is also a significant opportunity.

The pressure and scrutiny on the sector to be more sustainable is ramping up, to meet the UK’s net zero target by 2050, industrial emissions have to be reduced by at least 90% - the equivalent of removing every car from our roads immediately.

To make things greener, we need to make things smarter.

This is where digital technologies will be key to the net-zero transition.

Digitalisation offers manufacturers a huge opportunity to deliver operational efficiencies, decarbonise heat and power, optimise design and materials, and improve logistics and transport, benefitting their business, their bottom line and the environment.

Decarbonisation is not a distraction. It is imperative. UK manufacturing must get behind the mantra that the future is decarbonised and digital.
