Carbon neutral industry
The Netherlands must become more sustainable. But since industry is responsible for one third of all carbon emissions, this is a huge challenge. More sustainable fuels and production processes are badly needed.
Towards a CO2-neutral industry
Industry accounts for about one-third of CO2 emissions in the Netherlands. We’re working to make industry carbon-neutral by 2050, so there’s a huge amount to do.
