West of England Industrial Cluster Local Industrial Decarbonisation Plan

英格兰西部工业集群(WC)工业脱碳计划(WCIDP)将创建一项全面的战略，以实现英格兰西部工业的脱碳。该集群以波特伯里、埃文茅斯、塞文赛德和布里斯托尔港周围的主要工业活动中心为中心。该枢纽的“辐条”跨越了邻近地区分散的工业排放者，包括斯温登、威尔特郡、格洛斯特郡和萨默塞特，共同代表了包括水泥、化学品、制造业、食品生产、废物、回收和电力在内的多种行业。该项目包括7CO2‘S碳捕获和航运枢纽，这将是英国第一个分散的CCS枢纽，以及布里斯托尔城市飞跃，该项目通过ameresco和HEAT网络合作伙伴Vtenfall的20年特许权来支持布里斯托尔的脱碳。这是世界上第一个项目，在头五年承诺超过4亿GB，并在特许权上刺激超过10亿GB的外来投资，展示了该地区应对气候变化和大规模脱碳的雄心。该地区的多个集团正在开发重大项目，包括可再生能源、能源储存、氢气、生物燃料和CCUS，有可能在脱碳领域引领新兴的国家产业。该地区从废物处理厂获得大规模生物质排放的机会，将被可持续航空燃料和电子甲醇的碳中性生产所利用。重要的是，LIDP的资金将使WCIDP能够：\*创建一个连贯的总体脱碳战略，具有明确的基线和目标\*确定并连接现有项目和倡议，共享脱碳基础设施，加快新开发的机会\*团结公共和私营部门利益相关者，确保充分实现脱碳的社会、经济和环境效益建立行业/利益相关者团体，包括SevernNet、氢西南和西部门户，已经与地方当局、排放者、技术提供商和西部门户进行了接触网络运营商和政府就潜在的工业脱碳项目进行磋商。通过自民党资助加强现有的公私合作，将使该地区能够找到解决方案，建立商业模式，筹集资金，并以不成比例的速度实现脱碳。凭借领先的当地大学和充满活力的劳动力，我们的集群有潜力成为全国新技术技能和卓越中心；知识和专业知识的集中，以支持可扩展的尖端产业的发展。作为一个跨大片分散地区工作的新团队，该集群将从第一天起嵌入多样性、气候适应性、循环性和自然的积极考虑，成为全国学习的灯塔。

The West of England Industrial Cluster (WC) Industrial Decarbonisation Plan (WCIDP) will create a comprehensive strategy to decarbonise industry in the West of England.The cluster centres on a hub of major industrial activity around Portbury, Avonmouth, Severnside, and the Port of Bristol. The 'spokes' of the hub span dispersed industrial emitters across neighbouring areas including Swindon, Wiltshire, Gloucestershire and Somerset and together represent diverse industries including cement, chemicals, manufacturing, food production, waste, recycling and power.The project encompasses 7CO2's carbon capture and shipping hub which will be the first dispersed CCS hub in the UK, and Bristol City Leap which supports Bristol's decarbonisation through a 20 year concession by Ameresco and heat network partner Vattenfall. This is a world-first project with over £400 million committed in the first five years and stimulating over £1billion inward investment over the concession demonstrating the area's ambition to address climate change and decarbonise at scale.Major projects are being developed by groups across the region, including renewables, energy storage, hydrogen, biofuels and CCUS, with the potential to spearhead emerging national industries in the field of decarbonisation. The region's exceptional access to biogenic emissions at scale from several energy from waste plants will be harnessed by the carbon-neutral production of sustainable aviation fuel and e-methanol.Critically, LIDP funding will allow WCIDP to:\*Create a coherent, overarching decarbonisation strategy with a clear baseline and targets\*Identify and connect existing projects and initiatives, sharing decarbonisation infrastructure and accelerating opportunities for new developments\*Unite public and private sector stakeholders ensuring the social, economic and environmental benefits of decarbonisation are fully realisedEstablished industry/stakeholder groups including SevernNet, Hydrogen South West and the Western Gateway are already engaged with Local Authorities, emitters, technology providers, network operators and Government on potential industrial decarbonisation projects. Strong existing public-private collaboration, enhanced through LIDP funding will enable the region to identify solutions, establish business models, source funding and achieve decarbonisation disproportionately quickly.With leading local universities and a vibrant workforce, our cluster has the potential to be a national centre of skills and excellence for new technologies; a concentration of knowledge and expertise to support development of scalable cutting-edge industries.As a new team working across a large dispersed area, the cluster will embed diversity, climate resilience, circularity and nature positive considerations from day one, becoming a beacon of learning across the country.
