Net-Zero Cement: Building a Sustainable Future
Organizer
Net-Zero Industries Mission
Content Description
The cement industry is responsible for 4% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Decarbonising the sector is particularly challenging — while one-third of emissions stem from energy use, two-thirds are a result of unavoidable chemical reactions during limestone processing. Despite these challenges, cement remains crucial for economic development and for building the clean energy infrastructure necessary for a sustainable future.
Join us for a webinar where leading innovators and industry experts will showcase solutions, from alternative materials and carbon capture technologies to innovative production processes. Discover how we can pave the way to a net-zero future.
