T-4B1c-A-1 - Industrial buildings heated with coal
Definition¶
This emission source is defined by the IPCC in TBD.
Sustainability Category: Red¶
This activity significantly contributes to greenhouse gas emissions and undermines climate mitigation efforts. The activity should be phased out or fundamentally transformed, with financing directed toward decommissioning, replacement with sustainable alternatives, or radical decarbonization where elimination is not immediately feasible.
Transition Elements¶
This activity has the following mitigation options modelled as transition elements:
- T-4B1c-TE-1 - Shift to district heating in industrial buildings
- T-4B1c-TE-3 - Shift to heat pumps in industrial buildings
- T-4B1c-TE-4 - Shift to biofuel in industrial buildings
- T-4B1c-TE-5 - Shift to solar thermal in industrial buildings
- T-4B1c-TE-6 - Retrofitting industrial buildings for efficient heating
Activity Model¶
This emission source is modelled with Combustion as:
