Panel: Competing with an emissions edge

Differentiation of energy sources and technologies based on their emissions profile presents a key opportunity to strengthen industrial competitiveness and support long-term economic growth. Manufacturers and exporters with lower emissions intensity are increasingly positioned to leverage this advantage to enhance market access, attract investment, and navigate evolving international trade policies and standards. This discussion will examine the economic benefits of formal emissions management frameworks, policy pathways for implementation, and the opportunities ahead to enhance competitiveness in an evolving global energy landscape.
