Abstract

Industry is the economic sector with the highest contribution to global Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG) and therewith plays a major for future decarbonization. The question arises whether cyber physical production systems (CPPS) as one core element of the digital transformation of industry can contribute here. To derive the most promising fields of action and investigate the role of CPPS a holistic perspective on the industry sector is necessary. Besides energy efficiency also fostering energy transition towards renewable sources as well as material efficiency turn out to be important leverages. Major CPPS based contributions can be expected through innovative, advanced control approaches—especially for complex production situations with changing products and diverse influencing factors. But also in other areas at least indirect contributions through CPPS can be expected, e.g. for identification of best practice technologies, to align energy demand and renewable energy supply or to support material efficiency-related improvements. Altogether, CPPS based potential for industry is estimated in a range of 15–25%.
