How can Europe’s most interconnected chemical cluster remain competitive while accelerating its transition to climate neutrality?
Join us for a DECHEMA in Dialogue webinar presenting the results of the 3C VaCS (Trilateral Chemical Region Value Chain Structures) project. The final report provides an in-depth analysis of the chemical value chains across the Netherlands, Flanders, and North Rhine-Westphalia—one of Europe’s most important industrial regions.
The webinar will explore the role of steam crackers as the backbone of the regional chemical industry, current challenges such as rising energy costs, global competition, and evolving policy frameworks, as well as potential transformation pathways for the sector.
As part of the DECHEMA in Dialogue series, Joris Valee (VITO/EnergyVille, Belgium) and Alexandra Göbel (DECHEMA e.V., Germany) will present the key findings of the 3C VaCS project and discuss future pathways for the chemical industry in North-Western Europe.
