Defossilisation is a major technical and economic challenge. It harbours risks, but also opportunities for innovative companies that develop alternatives to fossil fuels. In the energy sector, solutions are available for replacing fossil fuels, such as the switch to renewable energies and electrification. This contrasts with the chemical industry, for which it is much less clear today how fossil raw materials can be replaced.
For this reason, the SATW would like to gain an overview of the effects of defossilisation on the value chains of the chemical industry and identify courses of action for the relevant Swiss players. To this end, it is planning a forum at which representatives from industry, associations, administration and research can exchange and discuss their experiences and assessments and bring them together to form an overall picture. The findings from these activities will ultimately be published by the SATW.
The SATW will shortly be inviting interested participants to the "Defossilisation Forum". If you are interested in the topic, we would be delighted to hear from you.
