Sitra has identified the key global megatrends from the perspective of low-carbon business and analysed their impacts from the perspective of six important sectors to the Finnish economy: transport, energy, buildings, industry, water and waste, and bio-economy. The analysis portrays a picture about the size of clean solutions markets globally. ---------- Sitra on tunnistanut vähähiilisen liiketoiminnan kannalta keskeiset globaalit megatrendit ja analysoinut niiden vaikutuksia kuuden Suomelle tärkeän sektorin näkökulmasta: energia, vesi ja jätehuolto, liikenne, rakentaminen, teollisuus sekä biotalous. Analyysi piirtää kuvaa siitä, minkä kokoinen puhtaiden ratkaisujen markkina maailmalla on kehittymässä. Selvityksen teki Sitran kanssa kansainvälinen konsulttiyhtiö Frost & Sullivan.
