New Supply Chains for the ‘Net-Zero Carbon’ Future: Strategies, risks and opportunities
The Race to “Net-Zero” is On
Governments as well as energy, petrochemicals, mining and financial companies are increasingly adopting net zero carbon commitments, vehicle manufacturers are committing to electrification of the bulk of their automotive fleets, and investors are committing hundreds of billions of dollars to low carbon investments. Achieving these ambitions means rebuilding the energy and infrastructure foundations across the world within the next decade to meet these goals by 2050.
This timely multiclient study by S&P Global offers critical insight and quantification of the supply chains required for an endeavor of this scale, the investments it will take to build them, and the business risks and opportunities.

Net Zero Carbon by 2050? More than half a billion electric cars? 14,000 GW of wind and solar? To meet these ambitious targets existing and new technologies will need to be deployed at a pace and scale far beyond anything previously imagined or experienced. This creates enormous challenges for supply chains that do not currently exist at scale – or exist at all.

What You Receive as a Participant
Benefit from global insights, detailed analysis and the dialogue as part of an exclusive community focused on sharing experiences and perspectives. The project also draws upon existing and on-going S&P Global research.
“New Supply Chains for the Net-Zero Carbon Future” will consider all major global energy demand and technology end-use markets to forecast aggregate global demand and supply scale-up requirements.
The research will draw upon deep S&P Global regional on the ground expertise. Particular focus is on EU, US, China, India and other emerging Asian economies, where the majority of demand growth will occur.
The study will have two parts.
All participants will join Part I; they will also have the opportunity to select from the list of three technology “deep-dives” in Part II.
- Part I maps existing supply chains for the selected technologies; and defines the investment and capacity build-out required for a credible pathway to a ‘net-zero carbon’ future.
- Part II uses this framework to examine the supply chain challenges, risks and opportunities specific to select low carbon technologies. We are offering three modules:
- Battery storage
- Solar PV and
- Wind - both onshore & offshore. Study participants may choose one or more modules, with discounted rates for multiple modules.
