    The EU has to drastically accelerate the clean energy transition and increase Europe's energy independence from fossil fuels – and from Russia. This focus is not new: decarbonisation of industry is a key element on the EU’s path to achieving the objective of climate neutrality by 2050 and an intermediate target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030, as laid down in the European Climate Law. However, bringing innovative low-carbon industrial technologies quickly to the market has become more urgent than ever. The European Research Area (ERA) industrial technology roadmap sketches out the key technologies and the means to transfer them to the industrial ecosystem for energy-intensive industries at EU and national level.Scaling up and deploying the – manageable – number of innovative low-carbon technologies currently at high technology readiness is needed to reach the 2030 emission objectives and to further reduce industry dependence on gas.In order to make best use of the public toolbox to leverage private R&I investment, to increase cross-sector cooperation and accelerate deployment, a number of opportunities for actions were identified, such as to intensify the cooperation with European standardisation organisations (e.g. CEN, CENELEC) and industrial partnerships to identify and fill main standardisation gaps for innovative low-carbon industrial technologies.https://data.europa.eu/doi/10.2777/92567https://dx.doi.org/10.2777/92567KI-01-21-501-EN-NISBN 978-92-76-44692-7EUR 2021.5872 E
