Global industrial CO2 emissions in the Sustainable Development Scenario, 2019-2070

Notes

STEPS = Stated Policies Scenario. SDS = Sustainable Development Scenario. Direct industrial emissions include energy related emissions and industrial process emissions and those stemming from the transformation of fuels in coke ovens and blast furnaces. Indirect emissions are approximated based on the regional average grid intensity of imported electricity and heat, except for a portion of the electricity and heat consumed in the iron and steel sector, where the first choice of fuel for electricity is assumed to be coke oven gas and blast furnace gas. Markers correspond to the total direct CO2 emissions from industry in each scenario.
