This preparatory project aims to develop a full application for submission under the 2021-2027 NPA Calls. The full application will focus on Topic 2.3 - Promoting the transition to a circular and resource efficient economy with particular emphasis on actions facilitating the transfer and development of solutions that promote resource efficiency, end-of-waste, and a better use of by-products in remote, and sparsely populated communities. The development phase facilitated by the Bridging Call application will enable development of the partnership and full concept for the full application. Furthermore, consortium partners from four different countries will conduct stakeholder analyses and map in detail the area where Low Carbon Concrete can be utilised beneficially. The focus of the future application will be enhancing knowledge about local powder materials and waste materials that can become supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) used to reduce/partially replace cement and production of Low Carbon Concrete (LCC). Also, the solutions to the issues created by the freeze-thaw cycle encountered in Arctic conditions will be addressed to achieve a suitable evaluation system for LCC. The frost resistance issue is likely the biggest challenge/obstacle in reducing the carbon footprint of concrete. (English)
