One third of the world's energy is used in industry to make products - the buildings, infrastructure, vehicles, capital equipment and household goods that sustain our lifestyles. Most of this energy is needed in the early stages of production to convert raw materials, such as iron ore or trees, into stock materials like steel plates or reels of paper and because these materials are sold cheaply, but use a lot of energy, they are already extremely energy efficient. Therefore, the key materials with which we create modern lifestyles - steel, cement, plastic, paper and aluminium in particular - are the main 'carriers' of industrial energy, and if we want to make a big reduction in industrial energy use, we need to reduce our demand for these materials. In the UK, our recent history has led to closure of much of our capacity to make these materials, and although this has led to reductions in emissions occurring on UK territory, in reality our consumption of materials has grown, and the world's use of energy and emission of greenhouse gases has risen as our needs are met through imports.CIE-MAP therefore aims to enable delivery of significant reductions in the use of both energy and energy-intensive materials in the industries that supply the UK's physical needs. To achieve this, we need to understand the operation and performance of the whole material and energy system of UK industry; we need to understand better our patterns of consumption both in households, and in government and industry purchasing, particularly related to replacement decisions; we need to look for opportunities to innovate in products, processes and business models to use less material while serving the same need; and we need to identify the policy, business and consumer triggers that would lead to significant change while supporting UK prosperity.The proposer team have already developed broad-ranging work aiming to address this need, in close collaboration with industry and government partners: work on energy and emissions embodied in trade at Leeds has shown how UK emissions and energy demand in industry have declined largely due to a shift of production elsewhere, while the true energy requirements of our consumption have grown; in Bath, work on embodied energy and emissions has created a widely adopted database of materials, and the Transitions and Pathways project has established a clear set of policy opportunities for low carbon technologies that we can now apply to demand reduction; work on sustainable consumption at Nottingham Trent has shown how much of our purchased material is discarded long before it is degraded, looked at how individuals define their identity through consumption, and begun to tease out possible interventions to influence these wasteful patterns of consumption; Cardiff have undertaken extensive research on public perceptions, attitudes and behaviour. The proposal is strongly supported by four key government departments, the Committee on Climate Change, and a wide network of smaller organisations whose interests overlap with the proposed Centre, and who wish to collaborate to ensure rich engagement in policy and delivery processes. Mechanisms, including a Fellows programme for staff exchange in the UK and an International Visiting Fellows programme for global academic leaders, have been designed to ensure that the activities of the Centre are highly connected to the widest possible range of activities in the UK and internationally which share the motivation to deliver reductions in end-use energy demand in Industry.

世界上三分之一的能源用于工业生产产品-维持我们生活方式的建筑物、基础设施、车辆、资本设备和家庭用品。大部分能源需要在生产的早期阶段将原材料，如铁矿石或树木，转化为钢板或纸卷等库存材料，因为这些材料价格便宜，但使用大量能源，它们已经非常节能。因此，我们创造现代生活方式的关键材料-特别是钢铁，水泥，塑料，纸张和铝-是工业能源的主要“载体”，如果我们想大幅减少工业能源的使用，我们需要减少对这些材料的需求。在英国，我们最近的历史已经导致我们关闭了大部分生产这些材料的能力，虽然这导致了英国领土上发生的排放减少，但实际上我们的材料消耗量已经增加，由于我们的需求通过进口来满足，世界的能源使用和温室气体排放量都有所上升。因此，MAP的目标是在满足英国物质需求的行业中大幅减少能源和能源密集型材料的使用。为了实现这一目标，我们需要了解英国工业的整个材料和能源系统的运作和性能;我们需要更好地了解我们在家庭、政府和工业采购中的消费模式，特别是与更换决策有关的消费模式;我们需要寻找机会，在产品、工艺和商业模式方面进行创新，在满足相同需求的同时使用更少的材料;我们需要确定政策、企业和消费者触发因素，这些因素将导致重大变革，同时支持英国的繁荣。提案团队已经与行业和政府合作伙伴密切合作，开展了旨在满足这一需求的广泛工作：在利兹进行的一项关于贸易中的能源和排放的研究表明，英国工业中的排放和能源需求在很大程度上是由于生产的转移而下降的在其他地方，虽然我们消费的真正能源需求有所增长;在巴斯，关于具体能源和排放的工作创建了一个广泛采用的材料数据库，过渡和途径项目为低碳技术建立了一套明确的政策机会，我们现在可以将其应用于减少需求;诺丁汉特伦特大学的可持续消费研究表明，我们购买的材料中有多少在降解之前就被丢弃了，研究了个人如何通过消费来定义自己的身份，并开始梳理出可能的干预措施，以影响这些浪费的消费模式;卡迪夫对公众的看法、态度和行为进行了广泛的研究。该提案得到了四个主要政府部门、气候变化委员会以及一个广泛的小型组织网络的大力支持，这些组织的利益与拟议的中心重叠，并希望合作以确保在政策和交付过程中的广泛参与。机制，包括在英国工作人员交流的研究员计划和全球学术领导人的国际访问学者计划，旨在确保中心的活动与英国和国际上尽可能广泛的活动高度相关，这些活动都有减少工业最终能源需求的动机。
