The technology exists. Now we need to scale it. Europe already has many of the technologies needed to decarbonise heavy industry. The challenge is no longer whether the solutions exist, but whether the right policy and market conditions are in place to enable their widespread deployment. We're pleased to join Environmental Defense Fund Europe's Business Innovation series, where our Director of Public Affairs and Sustainability, Susan McGarry, discusses how commercially available low-carbon cement technologies can help decarbonise an industry responsible for around 8% of global CO₂ emissions. The conversation explores why the next phase of industrial decarbonisation depends on creating the right conditions for innovation to scale - through standards, procurement, industrial policy and investment certainty. These are the levers that will determine how quickly proven technologies can transform Europe's built environment while strengthening its industrial competitiveness. Thank you to the Environmental Defense Fund Europe team for the opportunity to discuss the role that policy can play in accelerating the transition to low-carbon construction. 🎥 Watch the full conversation below. #IndustrialDecarbonisation #LowCarbonCement #ClimateAction #EuropeanCompetitiveness #CleanIndustry #Innovation #Construction #NetZero
