The Ministry of Climate Policy and Green Growth is a government body responsible for designing and implementing climate and sustainability policy within its jurisdiction. It develops national strategies for greenhouse‑gas reduction, adaptation and resilience, renewable and low‑carbon energy deployment, sustainable industry, and the circular economy. The ministry coordinates across public agencies, sets targets, and aligns domestic action with international climate commitments.
For the chemical and process industries, the ministry’s work typically shapes environmental and climate regulations, including emissions standards, permitting and reporting requirements, waste and water management rules, and approaches to hazardous substances and product stewardship. It may also support green innovation and industrial decarbonization through funding programs, public‑private partnerships, and frameworks that encourage energy efficiency, electrification, carbon management, and the use of bio‑based or recycled feedstocks. The ministry engages with industry stakeholders to balance competitiveness with climate objectives and to accelerate the transition to more sustainable materials and manufacturing.
