Net Zero Research, Development & Deployment Inventory

The Challenge

The current WA heavy industry decarbonisation R&D landscape consists of multiple organisations and projects. The lack of a shared understanding poses a potential risk to long-term emissions reduction and the strategic direction for investment in the development of technologies crucial for decarbonising heavy industry in WA. Consequently, this could impede effective and efficient use of public and private funding.

Proposed Solution

The net zero RD&D inventory aims to establish a shared understanding of the current and future capabilities supporting, and the opportunities in WA’s net zero energy transition. This shared understanding will be informed by government, heavy industry and research institutions, and intended to be publicly available.

Proposed Benefits to WA

The inventory will provide an understanding of the heavy industry decarbonisation R&D landscape in WA. A publicly shared inventory could contribute to developing a strategic, coordinated direction for heavy industry RD&D investment.
