BLADES2BUILD will be presented at the Innovation Industry Construction Congress!
♻️ How can end-of-life wind turbine blades become part of the low-carbon construction transition?
👉 At the Innovation Industry Construction Congress (IC2) (1-5 June) in Santander (https://ic2.es/en), the BLADES2BUILD project will be featured as part of the workshop organized by our partner ACCIONA:
📍 “Decarbonizing Construction: From Strategy to Action”
📅 4 June 2026 | 15:45–17:00
🏛️ Pedro Salinas 2 Room
📍 The construction sector faces a dual challenge: reducing its carbon footprint while increasing resource efficiency. BLADES2BUILD addresses both by demonstrating how decommissioned wind turbine blades can be transformed into valuable resources for the construction industry, advancing circularity and reducing reliance on virgin materials.
💡 During the workshop, ACCIONA with Amaia Gómez San Martín and Holcim with Jose Romero will share practical examples of how innovative materials, circular economy strategies, and lifecycle thinking can support the decarbonization of infrastructure projects.
🔎 BLADES2BUILD is a clear example of how cross-sector collaboration can turn a growing waste stream into an opportunity for sustainable construction.
🔔 By connecting the renewable energy and construction sectors, we can move beyond waste management and create scalable solutions that contribute to climate goals while generating real value for industry.
👉 Looking forward to discussing how innovation can help transform sustainability ambitions into tangible actions!
