Accelerating e-infrastructure: Demand-driven decarbonization

Description

Organizations across the globe are facing multiple crises simultaneously. The climate emergency requires aggressive decarbonization to limit global warming, and at the same time, the energy crisis poses urgent challenges around affordability, security and resilience.

Now is the right moment to accelerate the deployment of electric infrastructure supported by an integrated approach. Companies engaged in net-zero transitions can strengthen their performance by fast-tracking low-carbon technology adoption for mobility, energy and the built environment.

Businesses have already signaled an appetite to make more responsible choices. WBCSD is working on equipping them with the right setup and tools, enabling cross-industry collaboration that can drive the change.

This webinar will explore the key barriers experienced across both the supply- and demand-side and opportunities to unlock these through practical solutions targeting companies and public sector actors looking to decarbonize their operational footprint. We will discuss how to adopt integrated approaches to accelerate decarbonization and increase resilience at the nexus of transport, energy and the built environment.
