Decarbonizing cement and concrete - major opportunity, or death by a thousand cuts?

from Capitol Crude: The US Energy Policy Podcast

Fossil fuels used for power and vehicles have been in the spotlight as the Biden Administration seeks to reduce economy-wide carbon emissions to net-zero by 2050. But the US industrial sector is also a key source of carbon emissions, accounting for one-third of all energy related domestic greenhouse gas emissions, according to the US Department of Energy. Carbon emissions from industrial processes like cement and concrete manufacturing can be difficult to abate because emissions come from many different steps in the process. Marty Ozinga, the CEO of concrete company Ozinga, joins new Capitol Crude co-host Kate Winston on the podcast to discuss some of the opportunities available to decarbonize the cement and concrete sector. Stick around after the interview for Starr Spencer with the Market Minute, a near-term look at oil market drivers.
