Carbon8 Systems to participate in South Wales industrial cluster project
20 April 2021
The South Wales Industrial Cluster (SWIC), a partnership between industry, energy suppliers, infrastructure providers, academia, legal sector, service providers and public sector organisations, has been awarded GBP1.5m from UKRI’s Industrial Decarbonisation programme to map what is needed to support South Wales in becoming a net-zero carbon region by 2050.
Carbon8 Systems is part of the SWIC partnership companies and has already shown its capabilities of reducing CO
2 emissions with carbon capture and utilisation at Vicat's Montalieu cement plant in France.
Led by CR Plus, and entitled "South Wales Industry – A Plan for Clean Growth", the project started in February 2021 and will last for 26 months and is funded via the UK Government’s Research and Innovation ‘Industrial Decarbonisation Challenge’.
