Cement
Concrete is the most used man-made material on the planet, and is crucial for the construction of the world’s infrastructure. A carbon intensive process, cement production is responsible for 8% of global CO2 and as a result, the industry is increasingly singled out not only by the public, but also by investors and governments, who are demanding environmental impact assessments before committing funding. The cement sector brings opportunities for collaboration and partnerships with companies from other industries, and in particular those targeting investment in new technologies to recycle and decarbonise construction, demolition waste and materials. Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) is a key technology to decarbonise cement production.
