Clean industry is the third pillar of the energy transition, alongside efficiency and renewables, representing a $1.6 trillion investment opportunity across 70 countries. Currently, fewer than 15 clean industry projects a year are securing finance, with hundreds more ready to move. We are on the cusp of a major global shift. By accelerating clean industry, we have the chance to build stronger economies, more resilient supply chains, and lasting energy security. Tonight on the eve of #ClimateWeekNYC, the ITA is bringing together leaders from business, finance, policy and civil society. Together, we will unveil a global campaign to fast-track the clean industrial revolution. This is about mobilising countries, companies and capital to seize the clean industry opportunity.
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.

The clean industrial revolution is within reach – but progress isn’t quick enough. Fewer than 15 clean industrial projects are financed each year, but there are 700 of these projects in the pipeline globally. That’s a $1.6 trillion investment opportunity waiting to be unlocked. We are on the cusp of a major global shift. By accelerating clean industry, we have the chance to build stronger economies, more resilient supply chains and lasting energy security. This weekend, at #ClimateWeekNYC, the ITA and Mission Possible Partnership will bring together a select group of global leaders to confront this challenge head-on. Together, we’ll be unveiling something big: a new global campaign to fast-track clean industry. Stay tuned. This is just the beginning.

3 days to go! I’m heading to #ClimateWeekNYC shortly, with a good mix of speaking opportunities, multistakeholder roundtables, and bilateral meetings on the horizon. I look forward to sharing insights from the tremendous work of our team and partners who are supporting tens of flagship clean industrial projects across the globe, and to debating and learning from others on how to reignite momentum for investment in clean energy, industry & transport amidst turbulent times. It's exciting to see the presence of clean industry on the NYCW agenda grow year on year. If only the pace of investment was following the same trend! The clean industrial revolution is within reach. Across the world, 70+ commercial-scale projects are now operational. Another 70 have reached Final Investment Decision. And importantly, 700 new clean industrial projects are in the pipeline, distributed across 70 countries. That means a $1.6 trillion investment opportunity is waiting to be unlocked. By accelerating that pipeline, we have the chance to build stronger economies and more resilient supply chains across all continents. This Sunday, on the eve of #ClimateWeekNYC, we’ll be bringing together global leaders from industry, finance, governments and civil society to confront this challenge head-on. Together, we will unveil a new campaign to fast-track clean industry and show what’s possible when countries, companies and capital come together. Stay tuned for further updates!

Last week in Brasilia, the Industrial Transition Accelerator (ITA) and Systemiq Ltd. co-hosted a roundtable on Unlocking Green Fertilizer Investments in Brazil, in partnership with the Australian Embassy, the The Australia-Brazil Chamber of Commerce - ABCC and Atlas Agro. Agriculture makes up around a quarter of Brazil's GDP and is critically dependent on imports with only 5% of its nitrogen fertilizer produced domestically in spite of abundant available renewable energy. Atlas Agro's Uberaba Green Fertilizer shows how green nitrogen can be produced at scale in Brazil for Brazil. However, the growth in fertilizer demand will be even larger than the plant capacity, meaning imports will increase. Further production is needed. At the roundtable the problem of financiers' fear of volatile market prices set by global fossil fertilizer producers were discussed as a factor holding back growth, and proposals for supporting the growth of domestic nitrogen fertilizer production were presented . The strong interest present from agribusiness, finance, government and civil society shows that there is growing momentum. Thanks to everyone present for their contributions and for pointing out the direction; Sophie Davies, MDIC, Jose Carlos Polidoro, Marc Farre Moutinho, Mathias Becker, Elbia Gannoum, Rodrigo Santana, Maria Gabriela da Rocha Oliveira, Lieven Cooreman, Giulia Tonon, Leo Barlach, Beatriz Makssoudian Ferraz, Gustavo Raschke Rameh, Green Hydrogen Organisation - GH2

Last week, the Australian Embassy in Brasilia, the The Australia-Brazil Chamber of Commerce - ABCC, Atlas Agro, and the Industrial Transition Accelerator had the pleasure of co-organising a roundtable on “Unlocking Investment in Green Fertiliser in Brazil”. With #COP30 taking place in #Brazil in just a couple of months, the discussion was a timely one. Nitrogen fertilisers account for 2% of global emissions but constitute a vital input for agriculture, a sector of particular importance to Brazil, representing 24% of its national economy. Reducing emissions from fertiliser production and use presents a challenge, but also a green economic opportunity. Against this backdrop, Sophie Davies, Australian Ambassador to Brazil, opened the roundtable, and was followed by an excellent lineup of speakers touching on a number of key issues. Valeria Noleto, from the ABCC, and Elbia Gannoum, of ABEEólica - Associação Brasileira de Energia Eólica Onshore e Offshore e Novas Tecnologias and COP30 Special Envoy for Energy, highlighted green fertiliser as a prime example of the type of solutions that COP30 should bring to the table. Petter Østbø and Rodrigo Santana from Atlas Agro, showcased their Uberaba Green Fertiliser project in Brazil as a flagship example seeking to produce low-emissions fertiliser from green hydrogen at commercial-scale. Mathias Becker, from Systemiq Ltd., spoke on behalf of the ITA about the financing challenges facing green fertiliser projects and how proven but innovative solutions such as revenue certainty mechanisms could be applied to mitigate risk and unlock investment. After an insightful discussion moderated by Maria Gabriela da Rocha Oliveira from Atlas Agro, closing remarks were given by Jose Carlos Polidoro from Brazil’s Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock (MAPA) about the contribution that green fertiliser could make to the country’s strategic goals. Brazil today is dependent on imports of fossil fuel-based fertiliser, for up to as much as 95% of its nitrogen fertiliser needs, so domestic green production offers a compelling solution to reduce its import dependency and the associated economic and environmental risks. Our heartfelt thanks to the Embassy for hosting the event, our colleague and Brazil lead, Marc Farre Moutinho, our co-organisers, the attendees, and to our partners at Brazil’s Ministry of Development, Industry, Trade, and Services (MDIC) for their continued support. The ITA looks forward to continuing our collective efforts to make #greenfertiliser a reality in Brazil and beyond.

#GlobalProjectTracker ‘Sector Spotlights’ - Cement The green cement project pipeline has shown only modest progress in the past six months, with no major new investments reaching final investment. Policy support and funding from government entities like the US Department of Energy and EU are critical for advancing green cement projects. However, recent reversals and grant cancellations pose significant barriers that threaten the pace of industry decarbonisation. From a technology perspective, cement decarbonisation is progressing through two main avenues: - The deployment of carbon capture, utilisation and storage CCUS) at major plants - The rapid development of low-carbon binders and alternative chemistries-such as Limestone Calcined Clay Cement LC3, which significantly reduces clinker content and emissions Recent partnerships and funding are accelerating these innovations, with companies piloting new processes. Industry activity and partnerships show ongoing interest in low-carbon cement, but recent policy changes and grant cancellations (such as those in the US create uncertainty). These factors may slow project development and affect market adoption of green cement technologies in the near term. Read more: https://bit.ly/GPTJune2025 #MissionPossible
