In 2021, the concept of a “Clean Industry Hub” was suggested as a way to address industrial and institutional emissions while improving profitability, inclusive prosperity, and environmental co-benefits. Under the leadership of Commissioner Carmen Rubio,
the Bureau of Planning and Sustainability secured funds to explore the hub concept – whether that be a physical space, virtual space, or combination. The project included two components: an Assessment process to consider current conditions, global hub models, and policy and finance tools, and a Roadmap process to identify priority strategies moving forward. The Assessment and Roadmap were guided by an Advisory Group of 28 leaders representing private, public, nonprofit, and academic sectors. This document shares the Assessment and Roadmap findings.
