South Wales Industrial Cluster - Phase 2 Deployment

南威尔士工业集群(SWIC)是从彭布罗克郡海岸线到威尔士/英格兰边境的各种关键工业的混合体。它们在脱碳和清洁增长方面有着共同的目标。代表的一些行业包括：§钢铁制造§石油精炼§电力§镍制造§绝缘制造§化工§液化天然气进口§皇家造币厂§整个通用制造行业SWIC的部署将创造途径和机会，推动威尔士成为全球领先的脱碳工业和经济增长参与者。SWIC的目标是到2040年实现净零碳(NZC)。该地区每年的二氧化碳排放量为1600万吨(占英国总量的5%)，其中1000万吨直接来自工业，600万吨来自发电。实现NZC将为英国到2050年实现净零的目标做出重大贡献。NZC必须在“人、地球和利润”的更广泛背景下实现。这将通过在一个具有全球竞争力的市场内实现可持续的清洁增长来实现，保持一个不断增长和多样化的工业部门区域，这将潜在地保护103,000多个现有工作岗位。通过从绿色卓越中心向全球输出技能和服务，这一数字有可能增加。SWIC将制定支持区域氢气部署的备选方案，并开发碳捕获使用和储存(作为临时措施)。它将促进工业、城镇、交通和农业之间的共生。它将评估解决方案，并选择对经济二氧化碳减排影响最大的解决方案。部署将定义合作伙伴项目范围，以支持将项目推向建设的投资决策。部署合作伙伴汇集的专业知识和更广泛的SWIC成员将确保获得显著减少碳排放的最佳解决方案。SWIC通过持续参与，得到威尔士政府的积极支持。地方当局也为SWIC提供支持，旨在确保他们能够提供必要的就业机会，以保护其社区的未来。SWIC正在积极与英国其他集群地区合作，以优化脱碳成果。SWIC的部署将为英国提供更低碳钢和低碳水泥产品，这些产品构成了更广泛的英国基础设施行业的支柱。莱茵集团领导该项目，并得到广泛的关键合作伙伴的支持。第二阶段是一个整合努力、强化方向和进一步确定实现SWIC愿景所需行动范围的机会。

The South Wales Industrial Cluster (SWIC) is a diverse mix of critical industry from the Pembrokeshire coastline to the Welsh/English border. They have converged with common objectives for decarbonisation and clean growth. Some of the sectors represented include:§Steel making§Oil Refining§Power§Nickel manufacturing§Insulation manufacturing§Chemical§LNG import§The Royal Mint§Whole host of general manufacturingSWIC Deployment will create pathways and opportunities to promote Wales as a leading global player in decarbonised industrial and economic growth.SWIC's goal is Net Zero Carbon (NZC) by 2040\. Regional CO2 emissions are 16 million tonnes annually (5% of UK total), comprising 10 million tonnes direct from industry and 6 million tonnes from power generation. Achieving NZC will provide a significant contribution to the UK's goal of becoming net zero by 2050\. NZC must be realised in the broader context of "People, Planet and Profit". This will be achieved through sustainable clean growth, within a globally-competitive market, maintaining a growing and diverse industrial sector region, which will potentially protect 103,000+ existing jobs. There is potential to grow this number through export of skills and services globally, from a centre of green excellence.SWIC will devise options to support regional hydrogen deployment and to develop Carbon Capture Usage and Storage (as an interim measure). It will nurture symbiosis between industry, cities/towns, transport, and agriculture.It will appraise solutions and select those that have the greatest impact to economic CO2 emission reduction. Deployment will define Partner project scopes to support investment decisions that will advance projects towards construction. The pooled expertise of the deployment Partners and broader SWIC membership will ensure arrival at the best solutions for deriving significant carbon reduction.SWIC, through ongoing engagement, is actively supported by Welsh Government. There is also support for SWIC by local authorities, which aim to ensure that they can provide the necessary jobs to protect the future of their communities. SWIC is actively working with other UK cluster regions to optimise decarbonisation outcomes.SWIC Deployment will provide the UK with lower carbon steel and reduced carbon cement products that form the backbone of the wider UK Infrastructure Industry.RWE is leading the project, supported by a wide breadth of key Partners. Phase 2 represents an opportunity to integrate efforts, reinforce a direction and to further scope/define the action required to achieve the SWIC vision.
