Speaker Meeting – The Greenhouse Gas Challenge for Cement: Strategies & Solutions

A discussion evening with short talks by Michael Lord [Senior  Analyst (Industrial Decarbonisation), Climate Change Committee] and HVCA  Energy Group members (Zee-Zee Heine & Simon Daniell) looking at the  options for reducing or avoiding cement use  

Cement production is very important to Derbyshire, but it is the biggest  source of the county’s carbon dioxide production. We know that the  world needs to reduce carbon dioxide production in every possible way  so instead of capturing and storing CO2 from its production (CCS) how  can we reduce or avoid the need for that production? 

Following last year’s HVCA general meeting on Decarbonising  Construction: Is Carbon Capture & Storage (CCS) the only answer? which looked at decarbonising cement production by using CCS, we  seek to look at the other side of the coin which is how we can use  cement more efficiently or adopt building techniques which do not use  cement at all.
