Let’s imagine for a moment the future. Will it simply be a deterioration from today? Not only from a statistical point of view, but also in terms of our daily lives, the result of the massive environmental changes we are witnessing today? There is actually only one possible path: that of a complete transformation of the global industrial model. Such a transformation must be in line with the sustainable awakening of consumers and work to find new, clean means of production that do not harm the planet.
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that no effort directed towards decarbonisation is redundant. We have seen great progress across civil society, business, and politics; however, more time and effort are needed for the set net-zero targets to appear on the horizon. Climate Catalyst is fully aware of the current state of affairs. Members of its team are working tirelessly to raise public consciousness and stimulate the political agenda. With a current focus on Asia and Europe, they seek to mobilize different stakeholders to accelerate progress towards steel decarbonisation.
With over 25 years of experience in management, sales, marketing, product management, engineering and project execution, Joachim von Schéele is a flag carrier for sustainability. Based in Munich, Germany, as Linde´s Global Director Commercialization, Dr. von Schéele’s particular strength is on decarbonisation using hydrogen-related solutions. With a vast experience in both steel research and consultancy, he regularly advises on how to proceed with the green agenda. The GSW editorial team grabbed the opportunity to sit down with Mr. von Schéele who kindly gave us valuable insight into the importance of being cooperative, understanding and positive but also realistic.
Given the importance of hydrogen and its potential role within the green agenda, the US is making the logical next step. By releasing the U.S. National Clean Hydrogen Strategy and Roadmap, the Biden-Harris Administration has laid the groundwork for taking further measures to make renewable hydrogen an effective decarbonisation tool. The GSW editorial team has prepared an overview of hydrogen and the latest information on the Strategy and Roadmap.
The European Union is continuing its effort to fight global warming and become a net zero continent by 2050. By agreeing to the world’s first Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) in December 2022, the European Parliament and the EU Member states have once again attempted to confirm the region’s reputation as a global climate leader.
In a report titled “Winning in Green Markets: Scaling Products for a Net Zero World,” published in January 2023 by the World Economic Forum and Boston Consulting Group, it is exhibited how early adopters would probably profit by creating and selling green offerings. Green Steel World sat down with Ms Nicole Voigt, Managing Director and Partner, Boston Consulting Group (BCG), to discuss the report in detail and find out why now is the time to create the green markets of the future.
