This Mutual Learning Exercise (MLE) serves as a platform for 12 participating countries to discuss their specific needs and interests, exchange experiences and knowledge about success factors and lessons learned and provide guidance to policy makers on how to develop or update their industrial technology roadmaps and sector-specific strategies for industrial decarbonisation.
The MLE provides best practices and models for mobilising private and public investments in low-carbon technologies of energy-intensive industries and their deployment, taking into account also framework conditions. This helps countries to effectively address the challenges of reducing carbon emissions and link R&I on industrial decarbonisation in the industrial sector and move towards a more sustainable future.
The MLE will be structured along the following topics:
- Overview of national industrial technology roadmaps and strategies for industrial decarbonisation.
- Policies, design and financing for R&I investments in development, uptake and deployment of low-carbon technologies.
- Actors’ engagement.
- Framework conditions (regulatory framework, permits for demonstrators and ‘first-of-a-kind’ pilots, IPR, technology infrastructures, knowledge and data).

The summary factsheet presents the objective of the mutual learning exercise, key topics of interest, scheduled meetings, names of the experts and DG R&I Policy Officers.

This report gives an overview on the role of roadmaps and strategies at national level focusing on industrial decarbonisation, along with the initial ERA industrial technology roadmap. In addition, this report presents a summary of lessons learned from past roadmapping exercises at national level.

This report explores the building blocks constituting a policy-mix for the effective uptake and deployment of low-carbon technologies. It focusses on design and potential impact of national support programmes and initiatives, alongside industrial decarbonisation and demonstration projects across varied funded programmes. Furthermore, the report explores diverse financing instruments and examines the mobilisation of public and private research and innovation investments for climate neutrality

This report presents a detailed examination of the varied roles played by different stakeholders in the process of industrial decarbonisation, encompassing enterprises, governments, and community groups.

This Mutual Learning Exercise report on industrial decarbonisation, drawing on insights from 12 countries, explores key conditions needed for adopting and innovating low-carbon technologies in energy-intensive industries. It describes the importance of stable regulations, innovative financing options, and improved technology infrastructure & data sharing to speed up deployment of research & innovation solutions.

This report analyses challenges and opportunities for reducing carbon emissions in Europe's energy-intensive industries. It explores the lessons learnt and challenges from twelve countries to identify solutions and emphasises the need for collaboration to address energy supply issues. The report calls for faster adoption of low-carbon technologies and stable regulations to attract investment. It highlights the importance of a unified approach across Europe to achieve a sustainable and low-carbon industrial future.

The summary article presents key findings from the Mutual Learning Exercise on Industrial Decarbonisation. Over the course of 12 months, a panel of experts developed recommendations to help policymakers update their strategies and roadmaps for low-carbon technologies in industry.
