The Industrial Technologies Program within DOE’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy will hold an Industry Stakeholders Workshop on Cement Energy and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Reduction Opportunities. The day-and-a-half workshop will take place at the San Mateo Marriott San Francisco Airport from September 29-30.

This collaborative DOE-industry effort is designed to develop a national perspective that identifies the opportunities, barriers, and pathways to significantly increase energy efficiencies and reduce CO2 emissions from the cement production process. This endeavor will support the Administration’s near- and long-term energy and environment goals. The workshop will bring together representatives from the cement industry, academia, and the national laboratories as well as environmentalists, venture capitalists, and environmentally conscious entrepreneurs. Pre-registration through the DOE website is required.
