ICYMI: The National Ready Mixed Concrete Association (NRMCA) will get $9.63M in federal grant dollars from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) aimed at “Reducing Embodied Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Construction Materials and Products.” Through the Inflation Reduction Act, the grant will fund a five-year project managed by NRMCA and supported by its Build With Strength initiative which includes a team of concrete experts to educate the architectural and engineering communities on designing and specifying low carbon concrete. As detailed in NRMCA’s announcement, “Through this five-year project, NRMCA proposes to increase the quantity and robustness of ready-mix concrete Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) by providing grants to producers to create EPDs from an additional 3,000 plants (up from 1,500 currently). NRMCA plans to provide data quality management oversight and training, as well as education for producers by training additional EPD verifiers and certifying up to 500 EPD specialists through an online education system. NRMCA also plans to enhance its existing low-carbon concrete tool and host five low-carbon concrete training workshops per year for five years. NRMCA will work to improve the Product Category Rules (PCRs) for concrete and data availability for critical inputs, including cementitious materials, aggregates, and admixtures.” Learn more about NRMCA’s grant here: https://lnkd.in/e2G7tes2 Learn about additional grant recipients here: https://lnkd.in/gmTdcSjE #EPDs #LowCarbonConcrete #ConcreteConstruction

Attending the 2024 Breakthrough Energy Summit, CarbonCure CEO Robert Niven observed what appeared to be a industrial decarbonization turning point. By his account, this year's summit felt like a show of force by the global construction sector to take a leading role in sustainability. At the 2022 BE Summit in Seattle, in contrast, Rob recalled that the entirety of the cement or concrete innovation CEOs fit around one dinner table, with no industry participation. This year, the cement and concrete innovations could fill an exhibit hall and many senior executives from the world’s leading cement and concrete companies were in attendance and very engaged, with diverse regional representation. Concrete, embodied carbon, green procurement and insetting were hot topics in 2024 that filled standing room only sessions. And the entire value chain of stakeholders - spanning finance, building and infrastructure owners, design and construction firms, NGOs, material suppliers and innovators - were present and rising to the challenge set by Bill Gates to make the summit all about the immediate deployment of solutions. Before the Summit kicked off, exploring the local sites, Rob visited the London Wall which began construction in 200 AD mostly using the same materials and methods that builders use today - a testament to the durability of concrete products as well as the industry's pace of innovation. But at the next BE Summit in 2026, Rob predicts that many emerging innovations will have penetrated the market through partnerships, acquisitions and market-based mechanisms, offering building owners and designers a stackable suite of green concrete solutions: “I believe the next 20 years will bring more transformation to our industry than the last 200 as we strive to meet Net Zero targets.” CarbonCure’s mission is to empower cement and concrete producers with technologies and strategies to achieve the industry’s net zero commitment by 2050.

It's been quite a busy and exciting week at CarbonCure. We almost missed another milestone! Congratulations to our community of innovative concrete producer partners for collectively producing to date more than 7 million truckloads of lower carbon concrete! We salute them for their commitment to sustainability and pioneering innovation. All those truckloads add up to over 57 million cubic yards, supplying thousands of sustainable construction projects worldwide with the same high quality concrete that engineers and builders expect but with a lower carbon footprint that more and more end users are demanding. That's enough CarbonCure concrete to build the world's tallest building - Burj Khalifa in Dubai - 132 times over! Most exciting: The use of CarbonCure's technologies by hundreds of concrete producers - from North and South America to Asia and the Middle East - has saved more than 450,000 metric tons of CO2 so far. We look forward to celebrating half a million metric tons in the near future. Stay tuned for that update! #CarbonCure #Concrete #GreenConcrete
