No Escape – Carbon CUTs in Global Manufacturing Operations towards Achieving Net-Zero

Project overview

Capture and Utilisation Technologies (CUTs) represent an most effective pathway to achieving decarbonisation and the Net Zero goal.

Through a practice-based analytical modelling approach (i.e., advanced two-stage game-theoretical model developed on pioneering innovations in the Energy sector), and informed by case studies and real-world data, this project will translate academic research into industry-relevant insights and decision-support tools.

With data access from international manufacturers, Ministries, Customs authorities, regional governments, and logistics networks, the project explores how CUTs can be effectively adopted to capture and eliminate carbon emissions through collaborative initiatives between manufacturers and policymakers operating under capacity and technical constraints, while enhancing the commercial viability of decarbonisation innovations.
