Chemical logistics is on the move - scenarios and outlook for Germany
The chemical industry is a key industry in Germany. It’s one of the largest sectors of the country’s economy and accounts for a major proportion of its exports. However, it’s also one of the sectors with very high energy requirements. Companies began developing strategies to replace fossil fuels even before the energy transition became necessary. However, Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine and the resulting loss of gas as a “bridge” energy source has increased the pressure to find alternatives that would make the German chemical industry sustainable. A study entitled “Chemical logistics on the move: Scenarios and outlook for Germany,” which was supported by DACHSER Chem Logistics, examines the impact of this development on the demand for chemical logistics.
