3、biomass as feedstock or fuel,producing heat through electric means and adopting carbon-capture technologies,can reduce the sectors carbon dioxide emissions to almost zero.To decarbonize the industry sector globally will require cumulative investments of EUR2.7trn until 2050.Of this,the EU needs 8%or
4、 EUR210bn,and half of this for electrification investments alone.The rest is almost equally split between hydrogen use,innovative production processes and new technologies.Additionally,at EUR330bn until 2050,the EU industrys total investment needs for carbon capture and storage(CCS)are almost 60%hig
