Study / Decarbonisation of the food industry
The French agri-food industry, the country's leading industrial sector in terms of jobs and sales, is facing a major challenge: reducing its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to combat climate change while ensuring food security for a growing world population.
According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the global food system is responsible for between 21% and 37% of global greenhouse gas emissions, underlining the importance of decarbonising processing methods in this sector.
For the food industry, federations are currently working on specific roadmaps for each sub-sector. It is in this context that ALLICE and the CTCPA (French agri-food technical centre) have collaborated to carry out a technical study on decarbonisation in the agri-food industry.
This study consists of three main phases:
These three parts were carried out independently and are self-contained. For ease of reading, the study is divided into three separate reports, which are reserved for ALLICE members. Each report corresponds to a phase of the study and has its own structure (introduction, summary, conclusion, bibliography, table of tables and figures, table of annexes).
These reports are supplemented by a fourth document: a public executive summary.

This study consists of three main phases:
- Phase 1: Agri-food sub-sectors with energy challenges.
- Phase 2: Case studies, identification of decarbonisation levers for key processes.
- Phase 3: Technical contribution to roadmaps for the agri-food sector.
