Watch on-demand: Achieving Net Zero Carbon at Saint-Gobain
Watch this fireside chat on-demand with Blair Sturm, Process Sustainability and Energy Sr. Manager at Saint-Gobain, to learn how one of the world’s largest building materials and applications companies is decarbonising both their facilities and operational processes. Hosted by Energy-as-a-Service provider, Redaptive.
Speakers:
- Host: Julia Berg, Partnerships Executive, Redaptive, Inc.
- Panellist: Blair Sturm, Process Sustainability and Energy Sr. Manager, Saint-Gobain
Saint-Gobain has a history of finding solutions to complex problems. The world’s largest building materials and solutions company’s road to carbon neutrality is complex. It requires innovation, technological advancement, operational processes, funding solutions and human capital strategy. They know that achieving carbon neutrality is bigger than the effort of a single company. For Saint-Gobain, it means focusing on reducing the carbon emissions of industrial processes, materials, and applications markets by supporting the energy transition and reducing the impact of material use on both greenhouse gas emissions and resource intensity.
Learn how Saint-Gobain is working toward carbon neutrality by 2050. In this session, we’ll discuss critical success stories along Saint-Gobain’s journey, as well as the key challenges in the road ahead.
Takeaways include:
- Leveraging a data-driven approach to identifying energy efficiency and process improvement enables an informed strategy for achieving science-based targets.
- Electrification can only take us so far – other low carbon fuel sources such as green hydrogen and biofuels are needed to decarbonise processes that require extremely high temperatures.
- Achieving net neutrality requires technological innovation as well as new funding structures, manufacturing techniques and other operational processes as keys to success.
- Don’t go it alone – engage service providers, industry peers and subject matter experts (both internal and external) in your decarbonisation roadmap design and execution.
