Low-emission production methods could significantly reduce emissions in the basic materials industry, and help in reaching the target of net-zero by 2050. Considering the best technology expected to become commercially available in the decade, emissions from the primary production of cement and steel could be reduced by 95 percent, while that of ammonia could reach a 100-percent reduction.
