Carbon Re Secures €4.7 Million to Pioneer AI-Based Decarbonisation in Cement Industry

  • London-based startup Carbon Re has raised €4.7 million for its AI-based approach to decarbonise the cement industry

  • The startup aims to tackle gigatonnes of emissions and has already demonstrated a 10% reduction in fuel use and CO2 emissions at pilot plants.

    • ProblemTechnology Infrastructure

      "Energy-intensive industries like cement, steel, and glass are responsible for over 20% of global greenhouse gas emissions, making them one of the hardest sectors to decarbonize. These industries are crucial for society and the economy, but their high emissions pose a significant threat to the environment."

      Solution

      "Carbon Re's Delta Zero AI platform uses machine learning and AI to optimize production processes in cement plants, reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions by up to 10%. This results in cost savings and significant reductions in carbon footprint without requiring new equipment."
