Engineering solutions for climate action

With COP26 now in the rearview mirror, we turn our attention to the technologies, insights, and strategies needed to deliver reductions, with the private sector leading the way. New materials and designs can help drive down embodied carbon in construction and buildings.

More investment and expertise are needed to scale-up renewable energy technologies and power the shift to a low-carbon economy. A Ramboll survey conducted in November is bullish about the prospects of the Power-to-X sector, but insiders caution against complacency. Here are your latest sustainability insights from Ramboll.
