CEMBUREAU, the European Cement Association, invites you to take part in its annual conference. This year, the focus will be "Cementing Europe's Future: Where Next for Industrial Decarbonisation?"
The event will take place on 16 October at TownHall Europe, Brussels although it will also be possible to take part remotely.
Circular Week is an international series of events and initiatives dedicated to the circular economy and sustainable development, taking place across Europe. This year, the event will take place on 21-25 October.
Any company, individual, institution, association or other entity which would like to be a co-organiser and partner of Circular Week can host their own event from 21-25 October. Events can take the form of conferences, educational workshops, seminars, webinars and more, in any format and in any location. Do you have an idea for an event? Submit it!
CircularB (Implementation of Circular Economy in the Built Environment) aims to develop a common international framework for a circularity rating tool with Key Performance Indicators.
They have therefore launched an international survey to gather fresh insights into the technological, economic, cultural-societal, and regulatory barriers to circular economy implementation in the construction industry.
The European Commission has published the guidance on the application of the 'do no significant harm' (DNSH) principle under the Social Climate Fund. The guidance covers the environmental safeguards that must be in place to benefit from the Social Climate Fund (over EUR 80 billion as from 2026).
The consultation closes on 13 August. A webinar will take place on 18 July to explain and clarify the criteria included in the DNSH guidance and allow stakeholders to ask questions.
The Circular Cities Declaration, managed by our Coordination Group member ICLEI Europe, is is a project designed to help accelerate the transition from a linear to a circular economy with a specific focus on cities.
They've issued eight topical webinars with key stakeholders and institutions - and all of them are available for you to listen to!
Götafors School in Sweden has been awarded the BREEAM In-Use Outstanding certification, proving that modular construction can be used to make a modern, energy-efficient and environmentally-friendly school.
BUILD UP, the European portal for energy efficiency and renewable energy in buildings, is hosting the third in a series of six webinars organised with the CircularB COST Action project. This one is on Investors, Developers and Insurance Providers.
It will explore successful projects and the challenges they face while implementing circular principles in the construction sector.
This session will present the findings of innovative demonstration projects on net zero emission and plus energy neighbourhoods around Europe, as well as the viewpoints of key stakeholders along the value chain. It will also explore the policy measures needed to finance and scale up such projects around Europe.
The main outcome will be a list of policy recommendations for private and public decision makers.
The publication of CEMBUREAU's Net Zero Roadmap is a key moment for the EU cement sector: the roadmap looks at its climate ambition, the key levers to decarbonise cement production, and the policies needed to get there.
Cement and concrete are also going circular. Circularity is an integral part of the net zero ambition, allowing for significant CO2 reduction throughout the cement and
concrete value chain. Over the past decades, the European cement industry has promoted circularity by using waste materials to make cement, both as raw materials and as fuel in its kilns.
This shift has picked up the pace over the last few years, with the adoption of new methods to develop the role played by cement and concrete in the circular economy.
