Frequently asked questions

What is the Clean Heat Program?

The Clean Heat Program helps manufacturing suppliers understand heat emissions, identify practical reduction opportunities, and implement action plans with support from expert partners.

Through benchmarking, tailored learning content, practical roadmaps, and access to trusted solution providers, the program helps suppliers move from recommendations to implementation.

Why is industrial heat important?

Industrial heat is one of the largest sources of operational emissions in manufacturing supply chains and is often heavily reliant on fossil fuels such as natural gas.

It is also increasingly tied to:

  • Energy price volatility
  • Customer decarbonization expectations
  • Scope 3 reduction targets
  • Future reporting and compliance requirements

Reducing heat emissions can also improve operational efficiency and energy resilience.

Who is the program designed for?

The program is designed for suppliers where industrial heat has a large contribution to their Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions.

Do I need existing decarbonization expertise to join?

No expertise required!

The program is designed for suppliers at different stages of maturity, from organizations just starting to assess industrial heat, through to teams already evaluating specific technologies and projects.

What do suppliers receive as part of the program?

Suppliers gain access to:

  • A heat maturity assessment
  • Benchmarking insights
  • Tailored reduction roadmaps
  • Curated learning content
  • Practical implementation guidance
  • Access and referral to expert partners and solution providers

The goal is to help suppliers identify implementable next steps based on their site, processes, and operational context.

Is there a cost to participate?

The program is free for suppliers to join.
