Meta has partnered with CarbonBuilt, a company which develops low-carbon concrete solutions to reduce carbon footprints by up to 70 percent compared to industry baselines.This partnership aims to accelerate the production of low-carbon concrete and will allow CarbonBuilt to upgrade and scale the production of its low-carbon cement alternative, named Reversa.
“Everyone agrees that we need more immediate and significant reductions in CO2 emissions if we are to bend the carbon curve,” said Rahul Shendure, CEO of CarbonBuilt. “All meaningful solutions in the cement and concrete space require some type of infrastructure change, and making them happen fast requires that market participants can secure an attractive return on their investment of financial and human capital. Our collaboration with Meta will help accelerate the scale-up of our ambitious, here-now technology.”
John DeAngelis, head of clean technology at Meta, added: “Meta is prioritizing a multifaceted approach to accelerating decarbonization in hard-to-abate sectors like concrete. Our collaboration with CarbonBuilt will help them to deliver a step change reduction in emissions with a clear near-term path to scale.”
