The key challenges for the paper industry in the context of climate change

The development of a climate transformation plan and systematic climate management are becoming increasingly important in the paper industry. In the context of the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), companies must demonstrate how they are transforming their value creation to implement business models that are compatible with the 1.5°C target. Failure to comply could result in reputational damage and heavy fines.

At the same time, decision-makers in the paper industry are struggling with increasing cost pressure. In this context, they are faced with the challenge of developing future strategies that

1. ensure regulatory compliance,
2. guarantee a cost-efficient energy supply,
3. balance economic and ecological targets,
4. minimize risks in the uncertain market and regulatory environment and
5. use the company’s resources as efficiently as possible.

To support the industry in this endeavor, this study provides a concrete overview of possible technical and market-based measures for decarbonizing value creation in the paper industry.
