CLUSTER PLAN PROJECT
A Plan for Clean Growth
The SWIC cogs and roots of
decarbonisation
To address the highly complex concepts underpinning industrial decarbonisation, the Cluster Plan has identified activity areas that are supported by cross-cutting themes. This thinking has evolved into the five cogs of decarbonisation supported by seven roots of support.

Why is SWIC important?
Why is SWIC important?
South Wales is the second biggest industrial and power emitter of carbon in the UK, with over 16m tonnes of CO2e per annum but around 90% of those emissions are produced by 3 companies – all of which are involved in SWIC.
SWIC’s activities for industrial decarbonisation are currently focused on 2 streams of work – the Deployment Project and Cluster Plan.
