Champion - Industrial Decarbonisation Research & Innovation Centre (IDRIC)

采纳气候变化委员会关于到2050年实现净零排放的建议，表明了在面对气候紧急情况时发挥领导作用的明确承诺。如果要实现这一目标，工业部门的脱碳是一个关键挑战。然而，目前，脱碳解决方案在经济上没有竞争力。这是英国的国际竞争力，这是通过实施世界领先的创新，因此，确保研究和创新社区共同努力，及时的工业实施至关重要。该项目的重点是让学术界，工业界，政策制定者和其他利益相关者制定一个跨学科的联盟和工业脱碳研究和创新中心（IDRIC）的后续建议。我将促进研究人员之间的合作，以促进新的跨学科研究和创新计划的共同创造。在此提出的变革性创新将致力于正面应对复杂的社会和环境挑战，并有助于以低成本向新的社会技术体系过渡。协作活动和虚拟环境将促进共同创造跨领域的挑战。我将把电子数据交换原则纳入中心参与战略的设计中。

Adopting the Committee on Climate Change's recommendation to net zero emissions by 2050 demonstrates a clear commitment to leadership in the face of climate emergency. If this is to be achieved, decarbonising the industrial sector represents a critical challenge. However, at present, decarbonisation solutions are not economically competitive. It is critical to the UK's international competitiveness that this is underpinned by implementation of world-leading innovation, and therefore, ensuring research and innovation communities work together for timely industrial implementation.This project focuses on engaging academia, industry, policymakers and other stakeholders to develop an interdisciplinary consortium and subsequent proposal for the Industrial Decarbonisation Research and Innovation Centre (IDRIC). I will facilitate collaboration between researchers to foster co-creation of new interdisciplinary research and innovation programmes. The transformative innovation proposed here will be developed to address head on complex social and environmental challenges and contribute to low-cost transitions to new socio-technical systems.The Centre's agenda will be shaped initially by consultations, as well as network analysis, mapping and market analysis. Collaborative events and virtual environments will develop the co-creation of the cross-cutting challenges. I will embed EDI principles in the design of the Centre's engagement strategy.
