Abstract
This IDC Perspective discusses the need for decarbonization in engineering-oriented value chains (EOVCs), focusing on the aerospace and defense, automotive, and machine building industries. It highlights the significance of addressing Scope 3 emissions, particularly in production hotspots like steel, plastics, aluminum, batteries, and glass. It further emphasizes the role of collaboration, transparency, and data-driven strategies in achieving sustainability goals. In addition, it provides advice for technology buyers, stressing the importance of continuous data exchange, workforce development, and digital technology support in managing the product carbon footprint.
“The decarbonization of complex EOVCs is a multifaceted challenge that requires a comprehensive approach. Addressing Scope 3 emissions, particularly in hotspots like steel, plastics, aluminum, batteries, and glass, is pivotal for achieving sustainability goals.” — Associate Vice President Research Jan Burian, IDC Manufacturing Insights EMEA
