Unlocking low-carbon concrete in Europe
For years, it's been said that cement is one of the world's "hardest-to-abate" industries. A new generation of circular and low-carbon solutions are proving this is no longer true. Across Europe, innovators — both incumbent disruptors and challengers — have developed and scaled low-carbon binders for use in real-world buildings and mass transit infrastructure.
This webinar will mark the launch of the European Environmental Bureau's new report, CEMENT IT BETTER: Unlocking Low-Carbon Concrete in Europe, which argues that the biggest barriers are no longer technological. The report explores the new methods of production that are reshaping the sector, suggests key policy changes that can unlock the EU single market for them, and reveals that private procurement must work alongside public procurement to create lead markets for climate-friendly construction materials.
Join leading innovators and industry pioneers who are already bringing near-zero-carbon cement and concrete to market and industry stakeholders who support such pioneers with long-term support. See what it will take to make these solutions the new standard across Europe; and what policymakers and businesses can do to accelerate the transition of the construction industry.
Sessions will explore Low-carbon cements and concretes- from viable to the norm, Scaling up circular solutions for low carbon concrete and Lead markets from public and private procurement.
This webinar will take place on Teams at 10:00-11:30 CEST on 13 July. Registration.
