Decarbonisation is the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions through the use of low carbon power sources, achieving a lower output of greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere.
There’s no one-size-fits-all recipe. Each company needs to find their way through and plan to decarbonize. In Germany is expected that companies should achieve net-zero by 2045.
