Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is emerging as a powerful tool in sustainable construction. By capturing CO₂ emissions and storing them safely, CCS helps reduce the industry’s carbon footprint—especially in high-emission materials like concrete and steel. Innovations like carbon-absorbing concrete and bio-based materials are already in use, with projects such as CarbonCure and The EDGE in Amsterdam leading the way. While costs and infrastructure remain challenges, ongoing innovation and policy support are accelerating adoption, positioning CCS as a key solution for a low-carbon built environment.
