T-2D1b-TE-3 - Shift to electricity in pulp, paper and print industries

Background

IPCC WG3 definition: .

TBD

Sustainability Category: Green

Green

This transition element substantially contributes to climate change mitigation through significant greenhouse gas reductions, carbon sequestration, or enabling the transition to net-zero emissions. The transition element aligns with science-based pathways to limit global warming and should be prioritized for investment and expansion.
