The Journey Ahead: Decarbonizing Industry in Texas

Texas has a long and successful record of energy expansion as evidenced by its leadership in oil and gas emissions reductions.

Texas can be a leader in industrial decarbonization because of its attractive resource base for renewable power, carbon capture and storage, and hydrogen. It is home to a large industrial supply, demand, and infrastructure network – with nearly a third of the country’s refining and petrochemical processing capacity- the country’s largest electricity generation capacity, an experienced workforce, and a business-driven policy environment.

This event hosted by RMI, Mission Possible Partnership, the Bezos Earth Fund, and HETI is an invite-only convening that will bring together state and local policymakers; project developers; community organizations; and members of the finance community to discuss the journey we have undertaken over the last two years and the work ahead for decarbonizing industries in Texas and the USGC. The event will focus on stock-taking progress and identifying next steps to decarbonize and expand clean energy production in the USGC – focusing on hydrogen + derivatives, SAF, steel and cement sectors.

Participants will leave with a better understanding of the work RMI and its partners have accomplished and the road ahead, and participants will also have an opportunity to network with relevant stakeholders and decision makers working to decarbonize industries in Texas and the USGC.
