Decarbonizing industry is a significant challenge and a transformational opportunity. It requires policies and approaches that stimulate innovation in promising technologies and the deployment of emerging technologies to drive down their cost.

Electrification of industrial processes represents one potential viable option. This panel will examine how challenge focused innovation, public-private partnerships and technology cooperation will help in driving investments in clean energy investments and innovation, explore options for industrial process electrification, and the implications of that for power system planning operations, market design, and regulation, particularly in light of increasing penetration of variable renewables and increasing need for system flexibility.
