Why it's on ClimateTicker

Fluxys is a regulated gas infrastructure operator whose current core business — transmitting fossil natural gas and regasifying LNG — is a net emitter and climate laggard, despite genuine and measurable investments in hydrogen pipelines, CO₂ transport, and operational decarbonisation. The company's 'multi-molecule' transition narrative is partly credible but substantially front-loaded with fossil revenues and lacks SBTi-validated targets; the gap between its green branding and the reality of LNG expansion creates material greenwashing risk. Investors should credit the transition pipeline work while discounting marketing claims not yet anchored to independently validated science-based targets.

laggardFluxys earns regulated tariff revenues from operating Belgium's ~4,000 km gas transmission grid, the Zeebrugge LNG import and regasification terminal (197 TWh/yr capacity), and underground gas storage, while also pursuing growth in hydrogen transport, CO₂ infrastructure, and international pipeline stakes.

In April 2023 Greenpeace activists occupied the Fluxys Zeebrugge terminal, alleging the company cynically shifted lobbying from 'energy transition' to 'energy security' to justify expanded fossil LNG infrastructure after the Ukraine invasion.source ↗
