Equipment manufacturers: key cogs to drive transition

The transport, energy, building and industry equipment suppliers and manufacturers sector cuts across the entire economy.

It corresponds to the transformation of raw materials into end products (car manufacturing, power plant construction, etc.) or into the equipment needed to manufacture these products (conveyor belts, spare parts, industrial machinery, etc.).

The main source of emissions in the manufacturing sector corresponds to the use phase of the equipment sold.

Players have two main levers for decarbonization: developing low-carbon products and favoring customers with a low-carbon activity and/or an ambitious transition strategy.

To achieve this, financial players have a role to play in supporting companies as they change their business models and switch to new technologies, thereby reducing the emissions they finance and, consequently, the transition risks to which they expose themselves.
