Long-term model-based projections of energy use and CO2 emissions from the global steel and cement industries

This paper presents a global simulation-model for the steel and cement industries. The model covers the full modelling chain from economic activity, to materials consumption, trade, technology choice, production capacity, energy use and CO 2 emissions. Without climate policy, the future projectio…
