About Net Zero Industry Wales
We’re a not-for-profit body empowering businesses to build greener futures.
Become a memberEstablished in 2022, Net Zero Industry Wales is an independent organisation providing guidance and support to Welsh industries on their transition to delivering net zero.
While governing Wales’s Industrial Clusters — including the well-established South Wales Industrial Cluster (SWIC) and its partners — we support a growing membership of industry, academia, and public sector organisations.
All at different stages of their net zero journey, we provide support to these members by fostering collaboration, forming strategic partnerships, unlocking investment opportunities, and offering a suite of corporate benefits.
Through this, we bridge the gap between industry and regulators — accelerating the delivery of low carbon projects through co-creation with key planning and permitting partners.
Long term, our mission is to make Wales the country of choice for sustainable goods and services. While helping to improve the world’s environment, driving the uptake of low carbon technologies will help to create more competitive, high value products and additional well-paid, quality jobs in Wales.
This will provide a clear commercial advantage for Welsh businesses — echoing the power of Wales’ industrial heyday.
We believe that Wales has the potential to prosper once again, but this time, in a renewable way — benefiting our future generations.
Together, let’s ignite the green industrial revolution.
