Economically-speaking, in the next decade we'll need to deploy a massive amount of electric replacements for fossil-burning things, about a billion machines in total. So heat pumps, electric cars, induction stoves, electric bikes, electric panels on houses, new solar/wind farms, distribution lines, etc. This is the primary way we get emissions reductions at scale. All the manufacturers and contractors making and installing this stuff will need software to support them.

You might ask Saul Griffith (https://twitter.com/GriffithSaul/) for more details. He really has his finger on the pulse of the engineering needed and is one of the main people that got the US IRA climate bill to pass.
