Risman et al.’s 2020 research report, Technologies and policies to decarbonize global industry: Review and
assessment of mitigation drivers through 2070, details the technologies and policies that can reach net zero global industrial emissions by 2050–2070. It develops a blueprint to help action policymakers and businesses address the inter-connected concerns of innovation, technical feasibility, cost-effectiveness, an enabling policy environment, and the need for social equity in decarbonizing the global industrial economy. The researchers find that global industry can reach net-zero emissions by 2070 if existing technologies are enabled by smart policies like carbon pricing, research and development, and energy-efficiency and emissions standards.
