Global Matchmaking Platform Accelerates Industrial Decarbonization Efforts

In a significant move toward reducing industry related greenhouse gas emissions, the Global Matchmaking Platform on Industrial Decarbonization has officially been launched at COP29 and has now become fully operational. Initiated by the Climate Club, hosted by UNIDO and supported particularly by Germany, the online hub aims to enhance cooperation on decarbonization solutions and practical steps between industries and relevant stakeholders.

A bridge between stakeholders  - The platform serves as a powerful connector. It is designed to fast-track the decarbonization of heavy-emitting industries in emerging and developing economies. For this, it connects all relevant stakeholder to find both technical and financial solutions. It aims to streamline the exchange of information on state-of-the-art technologies, funding opportunities, and best practices in emission-reduction strategies. By breaking down silos between different sectors—such as energy, chemicals, metals, and manufacturing - the platform fosters the type of cross-sector collaboration essential for meeting international climate commitments.

How it works: The tool is designed to bring all relevant stakeholders together and enable them to easily connect, learn from best practices, find implementation partner and the right financial solutions:

  • A government can outline its industrial decarbonization needs
  • A company can profile its technology or solution
  • Investors and finance institutions can showcase their grants and loans
  • Delivery institutions can present their services and expertise

Submitted requests by governments are being reviewed and validated and then shared with a network of delivery partners, who then can apply for cooperating with the government and donors for a suitable programming. In the end stands a tailored financial and technical solution ready to be implemented  - it´s a match.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Global Networking: Enables businesses, innovators, and researchers worldwide to identify potential partners, cutting-edge solutions, and scalable decarbonization models.
  • Expert Resources and Insights: Hosts a comprehensive library of success stories, guidance tools, and sector-specific case studies, helping users stay informed about the latest trends and technological breakthroughs.
  • Tailored Matchmaking: A user-friendly interface and sophisticated matching algorithms pair stakeholders based on their specific needs, capabilities, and geographic focus, maximizing the impact of collaborative efforts.
  • Investment and Funding Opportunities: Provides tailored funding options—both public and private—to advance promising decarbonization technologies and projects.

Looking ahead
The Global Matchmaking Platform is now open to stakeholders across all relevant industries and sectors. Over the coming months, it will continually expand its resources, offering virtual roundtables, project showcases, and direct mentorship opportunities.

As the urgency to cut emissions intensifies, the platform promises to be a critical tool in accelerating industrial decarbonization, ultimately contributing to a more sustainable global economy.
