Abstract: The DEIMOS project developed and applied two complementary open-source modeling frameworks, FORECAST-Sites Extended and iSTEDS, together with openly accessible industrial datasets. These resources enable transparent and reproducible analysis of industrial decarbonization pathways across sectors, technologies, and locations. FORECAST-Sites Extended captures site-specific investment decisions, including asset vintages, reinvestment timing, technology costs, and infrastructure access, while iSTEDS assesses industrial electrification and demand-side flexibility. Applied in three case studies, the models highlighted the roles of hydrogen, carbon capture, and electrification in industrial transformation. Together, the models and datasets provide an open-science foundation for analyzing industrial transition and supporting future energy and climate policy.
