CarbonBuilt’s mission

CarbonBuilt, winner of the NRG COSIA Carbon XPRIZE, enables concrete manufacturers to produce ultra-low-carbon concrete products with 70% to 100% less embodied carbon. CarbonBuilt’s technology replaces most of the expensive, high-carbon Portland cement typically used during concrete manufacturing with a proprietary low-cost cement alternative made from widely available low-carbon materials.

Autodesk Foundation’s investment in CarbonBuilt

“Given their foundational role in the built environment, architects, engineers, and designers—Autodesk users, in other words—are well positioned to advance adoption of low-carbon technologies like ours to transform the built environment and address climate change.”

— Rahul Shendure, CEO, CarbonBuilt
