Overview
Direct emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases occur both from fossil fuel combustion for process heat and from chemical processes (e.g. calcination in cement manufacture). Indirect emissions come from e.g. the use of electricity.
Tackling emissions in the industrial sector involves a case-by-case analysis of each industrial sector.
Many Integrated Assessment Models (IAMs) have good representations of the industrial sector, but many more detailed energy models do not.
Industrial energy use and emissions also have a knock-on effect on life cycle analysis (LCA) of technologies in the rest of the energy sector.
Data

EU per country statistics of emissions and energy balances in each sector are available.

By sector
Iron and steel
Possibility of reduction of iron ore with hydrogen instead of coke being explored in HYBRIT and SALCOS projects.
Cement
Only option to reduce cement demand and CCU/S?
Concrete also absorbs CO2 from air.
