Report Launch & Public Forum – Asserting Climate Change Leadership in ASEAN: Carbon Pricing for the Malaysian Steel Industry
The Malaysian steel industry is an important part of the Malaysian manufacturing sector, which is currently experiencing significant growth, both in terms of production capacity and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. As a hard-to-abate sector, the rapid expansion of the steel industry poses challenges for Malaysia’s aim of reaching net-zero emissions as early as 2050. Through the forthcoming report, the aim is to explore the broader context of Malaysia’s steel industry, including perspectives from upstream and downstream businesses, international trade dynamics, and technological and financial challenges, particularly regarding emissions pricing and reduction strategies. Join us at the report launch to engage in this dialogue on the path toward a sustainable future for Malaysia’s steel sector.
