You hear AI, and let’s be honest, you don’t think of industrial manufacturing. But what if AI could be a critical tool to decarbonise the UK’s foundation industries?

The foundation industries, which include cement and concrete, ceramics, chemicals, glass, paper and metals, each have a huge carbon footprint baked into them to start with. For example, the British cement industry contributes 1.5% of our total annual carbon emissions – that’s approximately 7.3 million tonnes of carbon, every year.
