Some of TITAN's recent initiatives in the USA that exemplify our commitment to sustainability include:
➡️ 𝐑𝐨𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐤𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭: Titan America’s Roanoke Cement Company was selected by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED) for a $61.7 million award to deploy a first-of-its-kind calcined clay production line at our Troutville facility. This project, part of the $6.3 billion Industrial Demonstrations Program, is expected to reduce CO2 emissions by up to 40%, showcasing a significant #decarbonization lever.
➡️ 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐅𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐚 𝐂𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐲 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡 𝐇𝐮𝐛: TITAN America is actively involved in the South Florida ClimateReady Tech Hub, a collaboration aimed at commercializing and scaling resilient #infrastructure using #lowcarbon #cement and #concrete. This initiative, supported by a $19.5 million funding award from the U.S. Department of Commerce, combines innovation, decarbonization, and place-based economic development. It addresses the main challenges of adopting new materials, including test beds, policy development, codes and standards, capital investment, and workforce development.
