  • Towards cement and concrete as a carbon sink

    Closed

    Code: 34243 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-EIC-2024-PATHFINDERCHALLENGES-01-02 | Programme name: 2939 | Sub-program: European Innovation Council-EIC (2021-2027) | Start submission calls: 20/06/2024 | End submission calls: 16/10/2024

    One default pathway to decarbonize cement is to capture and store CO2 of current production processes (CCS). Technologies for CCS are in development and expected to increase the cost of cement. To avoid additional costs of future emissions as much as possible, accelerated deep-tech innovations are needed to fully negate or even absorb emissions by the sector in future. The breakthrough innovations sought with this Pathfinder Challenge aim to be more cost effective than CCS. Moreover, this Pathfinder Challenge encourages breakthrough innovations that utilize CO2. Such innovations can play an important role in future CCUS economies, and trigger future revenue opportunities for the sector by offering negative emissions at scale.

    This Pathfinder Challenge seeks to support breakthrough innovations and (alternative) pathways for decarbonized and carbon-negative cement and concrete.
