Decarbonizing construction is crucial to achieve the EU's climate-neutrality goal by 2050

In December 2019, the EU Commission presented the ambitious goal of making the European Union climate-neutral by 2050. The current estimated construction value chain accounts for around 36 percent of carbon emissions within the EU, with the vast majority of greenhouse gasses being emitted during the production of building materials, and decades of operating the completed buildings. Nevertheless, to achieve maximum decarbonization and reach the goal, efforts need to be done during the construction phase of new buildings. High expectations for process optimization
