Can hard-to-abate industries meet the decarbonisation targets of Australia? How will they do it? What can other businesses and industries learn from their decarb journey?
In this episode, our Infrastructure ‘guy’ Michael Kilgariff is back to talk about the Concrete, Cement and Aggregates industry and his new role as CEO of the industry association.
In a typically unstructured yet insightful conversation, James and Michael talk about:
- The process of effective strategic planning
- The relationship between strategy and culture for breakfast
- The challenge of the circular economy
- The challenges for the concrete, cement and aggregates industry in achieving net zero.
- The role of power requirements and trucking requirements in achieving decarbonisation
- The role of policy in achieving the targets
- And much more.
An engaging conversation with a raft of insights, quotes and observations: an episode not to be missed
