Industrial Transition Accelerator (ITA)
Non-profit Organizations
Fast-tracking decarbonisation in high-emitting industrial sectors
About us
The Industrial Transition Accelerator (ITA) is a global multi-stakeholder collaboration with an initial three-year mandate to unlock investments and turbocharge the delivery of decarbonisation solutions across heavy industry and transport. Launched at the COP28 World Climate Action Summit by the United Arab Emirates, United Nations Climate Change, and Bloomberg Philanthropies, the ITA brings together a vast network of climate innovators, industry leaders, governments, and technical experts, to accelerate the pipeline of commercial-scale, clean industrial projects across six critical sectors that account for roughly 30% of global emissions: aluminium, cement, chemicals, steel, shipping, and aviation. - Delivery-focused: progressing the pipeline of net-zero-aligned projects - Building on the pre-existing landscape: targeted actions that can drive scale We galvanise leadership across industry, finance and governments, to overcome decarbonisation challenges in six key high-emitting industry and transport sectors - Aluminium, Cement, Chemicals, Steel, Aviation, and Shipping. These six critical sectors account for roughly 30% of global emissions. We are working to increase the number of commercial-scale deep decarbonisation projects reaching Final Investment Decision (FID) across industry, to get them up and running by 2030 and contributing to emissions reductions in line with the Paris Agreement goal to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees.

It's been a big year for the ITA and Mission Possible Partnership with some significant milestones to reflect upon. There's lots to do in 2025 though if we're going to hit 2030 decarbonisation targets for heavy industry.
As 2024 ends, it's an opportunity to reflect on significant milestones in our mission to decarbonise the heavy industry and transport sectors. 🚢✈️🏗️🚛🏭 Throughout 2024, MPP and the Industrial Transition Accelerator (ITA) have operated at the crossroads of critical geopolitical, economic, financial, and national dynamics: ✅ MPP supported ~190 projects (25% of global pipeline) either directly or indirectly ✅ MPP launched the #GlobalProjectTracker shedding new light on the state of transition in seven heavy industry and transport sectors, which account for 30% of global carbon emissions and showing the growing pipeline of industrial projects. https://bit.ly/3ZK4A9t ✅ Working alongside RMI in California and Texas we have been working on the ground with green project developers at two clean industrial hubs. Supported by the Bezos Earth Fund, we are accelerating industrial #decarbonisation by concentrating opportunity and distributing risk. https://bit.ly/4gG5aMo ✅ MPP launched a report revealing that #GreenMarketMakers (GMMs)—innovative intermediaries between sellers and buyers—are one of the most efficient ways to deploy public funds for scaling up industry transitions. https://bit.ly/3ZNFRRN ✅ Partnering with Systemiq Ltd., Green Finance Institute and 14 CEOs across aviation, #ProjectSkyPower launched with the aim to advance large-scale #eSAF production and make Europe the global leader. https://bit.ly/3DpFvcq ✅ The ITA developed and launched three tools to help suppliers, buyers and policymakers support green transactions – Green Demand Policy Playbook, Green Purchase Toolkit (with WBCSD – World Business Council for Sustainable Development) and Standards Map (with RMI). https://bit.ly/4foJQtH ✅ The ITA, backed by over 50 business leaders, coalitions and financial institutions, issued an Open Letter calling on governments to take urgent action to stimulate demand for low-and-near-zero-carbon commodities. https://bit.ly/4gphHEc ✅ The ITA announced partnerships with Brazil, the UAE and Bahrain to support industrial decarbonisation in Brazil (https://bit.ly/4fwZhQC) and across the MENA (https://bit.ly/3BEW7wm) region. 2025 will bring the challenge of how to scale low-carbon industrial production, unlocking cost reductions and exponential growth. We’re looking forward to partnering with others to accelerate the change. See you in 2025.

The ITA and Brazil’s MDIC are paving the way for green industrial growth. By tackling the most pressing challenges - such as stimulating demand for green industrial goods, improving policy frameworks, and unlocking suitable financing - we are setting the stage for Brazil’s transformation into a leader in green industries. Flagship projects like Atlas Agro's Uberaba Green Fertiliser project and new initiatives by European Energy , Fortescue, and Green Energy Park underscore the tremendous potential for sustainable development. Together, they show how Brazil can chart a prosperous and low-carbon future. #SustainableDevelopment #Innovation #NetZero #GreenPartnerships

Useful carbon capture utilisation and storage (CCUS) insights here from our Materials Technical Lead,Elliot Mari. 👇
[𝗖𝗖𝗨𝗦] 𝗨𝗻𝗰𝗹𝗼𝗴𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗣𝗶𝗽𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗙𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝗖𝗢𝟮 Carbon Capture Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) is a key decarbonisation technology for many sectors to reach net-zero targets, especially heavy industries. The progress of the technology is monitored annually by the Global CCS Institute. The latest status report released last month shows that the global pipeline of CCUS projects has reached an all-time high in 2024 when combining all stages of development (i.e. early development, advanced development and in construction), with capture capacity hovering between 400 and 450 MtCO2/yr (see figure below). Notable policy developments are also reported such as the CCUS Business Act adopted in Japan or new bilateral arrangements for transboundary transport and storage of CO2 signed by France and Denmark with Norway. 𝗪𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘆, 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗮 𝘄𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗴𝗮𝗽 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗹. To put the current pipeline into perspective, the IEA Net-Zero scenario (designed to align with a 1.5°C trajectory by 2050) requires around 1,000 MtCO2/yr of capture capacity in operation by 2030 and 6,000 MtCO2/yr by 2050. Another scenario from the Energy Transition Commission (ETC) aims for around 800 MtCO2/yr by 2030 and 7,000 MtCO2/yr by 2050. Assuming an average CCUS project lead time of 6 years (which takes us to 2030), staying on track to a 1.5°C pathway would roughly entail the successful execution of the entire 2024 project pipeline, plus a second pipeline of capture projects yet to be identified, and about the same size of the current one. Additionally, the global CO2 capture capacity in operation in 2024 has barely evolved from 2023. While the pipeline of projects in development in 2010 was around 120 MtCO2/yr, only about 40 MtCO2/yr translated into new operational capacity 14 years later or about 80 MtCO2/yr when adding new capacities under construction. This illustrates how much the pivotal moment in a project lifetime lies between the Front-End Engineering and Design (FEED) and the Final Investment Decision (FID). Project efforts should therefore be directed to (1) growing the current pipeline by scouting for new opportunities and conducting more feasibility studies and (2) taking projects in early stages of development over the FID hurdle to deliver as per expectations. This is generally true for any large scale deep decarbonisation project in heavy industry, not only for CCUS. While the former is mainly the responsibility of companies, the latter requires more enabling conditions on the market and policy fronts. One of the missions of the Industrial Transition Accelerator (ITA) is precisely to identify and create such conditions to bolster investment decisions.

Hot on the heels of our announcement last week where we revealed three new, transformative low-carbon projects in Brazil, our new Insights Briefing, co-authored with Systemiq Ltd., identifies three key priorities for accelerating green industrial projects: 1. Demand - to secure long-term offtake agreements for green products 2. Policy - to strengthen supportive frameworks for industrial decarbonisation 3. Finance - to unlock funding for first-of-a-kind projects. This briefing is a critical roadmap for turning ideas into action in Brazil.

🗞️ After #COP29, I had the pleasure to be interviewed by Angeli Mehta PhD for Reuters. Her article is just out and provides a well-structured view of the state of the industry transition, with tremendous insights from Johanna Lehne from E3G. I recommend the read! https://lnkd.in/eRS63bkG 🤔 The headline of the article - "COP29 comes up short on spurring reduction in industrial emissions" - made me pause. How can we collectively ensure that #COP30 provides for a different story? At the Mission Possible Partnership and the Industrial Transition Accelerator (ITA), we are focusing on three key levers of change at this stage: 🏭Directly supporting a cohort of green industrial projects on the ground across a range of geographies to address the systemic barriers they are facing to reach Final Investment Decision - including in Brazil 💡Inspiring and emboldening public and private decisionmakers based on the success stories we can showcase and the lessons from our work with project developers 🏛️Encouraging governments to implement green demand stimulation policies that can scale up the market for green commodities and make green industrial projects bankable, on the back of our Open Letter (https://lnkd.in/eEA3PcxM) signed by 50+ business and finance leaders and Policy Playbook (https://lnkd.in/eyenKTSC) launched in Baku this year ❓ How can we best partner up with the industry decarbonisation ecosystem to achieve these goals? What are we missing? I welcome fresh ideas!
