Industrial Decarbonisation Research and Innovation Centre (IDRIC)

产业集群的脱碳对于英国到2050年将温室气体排放量减少到净零的雄心至关重要。工业战略挑战基金（ISCF）的英国工业脱碳挑战（IDC）旨在到2040年建立世界上第一个净零碳工业集群，到2030年建立至少一个低碳集群。工业脱碳研究和创新中心（IDRIC）已经成立，通过资助一个多学科研究和创新中心来支持这一挑战，该中心目前还不存在规模，以加速工业集群的脱碳。IDRIC与学术界、工业界、政府和其他利益相关者合作，提供英国产业集群脱碳所需的多学科研究和创新议程。IDRIC的研究和创新计划通过一系列活动来实现，这些活动使行业主导的跨学科研究能够在技术，政策，经济和监管等交叉领域进行。IDRIC连接并授权英国工业脱碳社区，为工业脱碳提供一个有影响力的创新中心。IDRIC的建立是研究和创新的“一站式”，以及知识交流，监管，政策和关键技能将有利于整个行业部门和集群。总之，IDRIC将连接利益相关者，激发和提供创新，并最大限度地发挥影响力，以帮助英国产业集群发展我们现有的能源密集型产业部门，并吸引新的，未来的先进制造业。

The decarbonisation of industrial clusters is of critical importance to the UK's ambitions of cutting greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2050. The UK Industrial Decarbonisation Challenge (IDC) of the Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund (ISCF) aims to establish the world's first net-zero carbon industrial cluster by 2040 and at least one low-carbon cluster by 2030. The Industrial Decarbonisation Research and Innovation Centre (IDRIC) has been formed to support this Challenge through funding a multidisciplinary research and innovation centre, which currently does not exist at the scale, to accelerate decarbonisation of industrial clusters. IDRIC works with academia, industry, government and other stakeholders to deliver the multidisciplinary research and innovation agenda needed to decarbonise the UK's industrial clusters. IDRIC's research and innovation programme is delivered through a range of activities that enable industry-led, multidisciplinary research in cross-cutting areas of technology, policy, economics and regulation.IDRIC connects and empowers the UK industrial decarbonisation community to deliver an impactful innovation hub for industrial decarbonisation. The establishment of IDRIC as the "one stop shop" for research and innovation, as well as knowledge exchange, regulation, policy and key skills will be beneficial across the industry sectors and clusters.In summary, IDRIC will connect stakeholders, inspire and deliver innovation and maximise impact to help the UK industrial clusters to grow our existing energy intensive industrial sectors, and to attract new, advanced manufacturing industries of the future.
