The Industrial Processes and Product Use (IPPU) sector in Ethiopia is being modernized to reduce its carbon footprint through a series of decarbonization interventions. The BAU scenario forecasts increasing emissions as industrial activity grows. The low-emission scenario introduces measures such as reducing clinker in cement production, improving energy efficiency in manufacturing, and transitioning to cleaner production technologies. These interventions not only lower emissions but also enhance the sector’s resilience to external shocks, including energy price fluctuations and resource constraints. By modernizing the IPPU sector, Ethiopia aims to achieve industrial growth while minimizing environmental impacts.
