T-2D3c-A-1 - Photovoltaic cell manufacturing

Definition

This emission source is defined by the IPCC in TBD.

Sustainability Category: Green

Green

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

Transition Elements

This activity has the following mitigation options modelled as transition elements:

Activity Model
