The chemical industry is a cornerstone of Spain’s industrial base, yet it faces high energy and production costs, regulatory uncertainty, and substantial investment needs to advance its decarbonization. These challenges risk undermining the sector’s competitiveness at a time when European climate and industrial policies are accelerating the transition toward low-carbon production.
Building on its work on industrial decarbonization, alinnea promotes this working group to develop a shared diagnosis of the barriers facing the decarbonization of the chemical sector.
By identifying key priorities and mapping national and European financing mechanisms, the dialogue lays the foundations for a long-term decarbonization strategy that strengthens the sector’s competitiveness, resilience, and economic viability.
