Professor Guillaume Habert will present some of the key findings from a recent study that investigates the practices and technologies that can be implemented to significantly reduce CO2 emissions from the cement and concrete sector in Europe by 2050. The report from the study "A sustainable future for the European cement and concrete industry – Technology assessment for full decarbonisation of the industry by 2050" was released in october 2018 and can be downloaded here https://europeanclimate.org/a-sustainable-future-for-the-european-cement-and-concrete-industry-technology-assessment-for-full-decarbonisation-of-the-industry-by-2050/

The study was conducted by the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETHZ), Zürich, and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL), Lausanne and commissioned by the European Climate Foundation.
