• Alliance first met at COP27 in 2022 and is building towards actions for COP28 in Dubai, UAE
  • Green industrialization practices to be defined and rolled out based on thinktank findings

Dubai, United Arab Emirates: KROHNE, leading global manufacturer of industrial measurement and metering technology, today announces its membership of the global business coalition the Alliance for Industry Decarbonization. The 102 year old family-owned German company has been making positive and consistent sustainable business decisions for the last few years and joining this group is a logical progression as they can use their might in the supply chain and through R&D prowess to develop better ways to operate around the world and reduce carbon emissions.   

The continued participation of leading industries in groups like this can benefit business opportunities for green industrialization and highlight the importance of collaboration in developing strategies and sharing best practices to cut industry emissions. About 25% of global GDP is produced by the industrial sector, which also emits around 28% of GHG emissions. Partnerships based on dialogue and actions are crucial for industrial stakeholders to best address the challenges and opportunities of a clean energy transition. A multi-stakeholder platform enabling such exchanges and collaboration can accelerate global climate action. Joining up alongside other industry leaders such as Siemens Energy, TAQA, Technip Energies, EDF Renewables, Tata Steel and Repsol ensures a strong guiding hand in taking positive action.

“We are proud to be continuing our journey towards net zero by 2045 or sooner alongside a strong alliance of solid industry players, brought together by the influential global entity IRENA. As part of the UAE’s Year of Sustainability and with our focus very much on driving action in the build-up and aftermath of COP28, our efforts and actions in the alliance are sure to move us closer to carbon neutrality goals around the world. All of us are pulling in the same direction for a better tomorrow,” added Frank Janssens, Vice President of KROHNE Middle East and Africa.
