Scaling up Implementation for Net-Zero-Carbon Construction
Book chapter, 2025

Despite insights from pilot projects, carbon reduction measures in the building and construction sector remain limited. Mistra Carbon Exit (MCE) has supported decision-making in the sector by mapping emissions reduction strategies across the value chain, helping companies, municipalities, and local initiatives to establish ambitious requirements for new construction. Ongoing efforts are aimed at expanding and adapting these requirements to additional project types and organisations at varying maturity levels.
