Position
Global Energy Monitor is seeking an experienced Researcher who will work as part of the Heavy Industry Program, working on specific trackers within heavy industry, with a particular focus on cement/concrete plants and iron ore mines in Spanish and Portuguese speaking countries. The researcher may also support other GEM projects as needed. GEM’s Heavy Industry work currently focuses on iron and steel, but will expand to include cement/concrete and iron ore mines in the coming year, and may expand to other sectors in the future.
Global Energy Monitor’s Heavy Industry Program currently houses several global trackers dedicated to providing information about the global iron and steel industry, which is responsible for 11% of global carbon dioxide emissions. The Global Steel Plant Tracker (GSPT) tracks all metal production facilities with at least 500 thousand tonnes per annum crude iron/steel capacity. This tracker includes information on location, ownership, production technology, operating status, and more. The Global Blast Furnace Tracker (GBFT) tracks details about age, size, and manufacturer/model for blast furnace units at plants in the GSPT. The Global Electric Arc Furnace Feedstock Project will track details about electric arc furnace feedstocks for electric arc furnace units at plants in the GSPT. GEM’s Heavy Industry Program is also expanding to build two new trackers, one on cement and concrete production, and one on iron ore mines. These trackers provide important information for understanding the opportunities and challenges of transitioning heavy industry to cleaner production.
The Challenge
According to the Intergovernmental Panel of Climate Change (IPCC), we have less than a decade to make massive and unprecedented changes in the global economy to avoid the worst impacts of climate change. To meet that challenge, Global Energy Monitor is creating trackers and other tools to provide detailed information on energy facilities, sponsors, and financing.
