The European Petrochemical Association (EPCA)‘s Net-Zero Transition Committee was established to help EPCA member companies navigate this transformation. The Net-Zero Factsheets and Enablers provide clear, practical insights into technologies, trends, and policies shaping the path to net-zero, offering a foundation for informed action across the value chain.

The Petrochemical Sector’s Role in Climate Neutrality

Europe’s petrochemical industry is essential to the continent’s net-zero ambitions. It provides key materials for renewable energy systems, circular products, and low-carbon manufacturing. Yet, it remains one of the most energy-intensive sectors, contributing significantly to global industrial emissions.

Decarbonizing this sector requires more than innovation — it demands collaboration, knowledge sharing, and actionable strategies. Whether large corporations or SMEs, the challenge is the same: how to move from ambition to implementation while remaining competitive.

To support this transition, the European Petrochemical Association (EPCA) established its Net-Zero Transition Committee in 2024. The Committee serves as a neutral platform for experts to guide the industry toward sustainable business models.
