Three-Quarters Unbuilt: Decarbonizing Infrastructure for 1.5°C  

November 9, 2026, 16:45 – 18:15 (TRT) 

Three-quarters of the infrastructure that will exist in 2050 has yet to be built, creating a critical opportunity to reduce emissions and advance the 1.5°C climate target. This session explores how industry commitments, aligned whole-life carbon measurement, and infrastructure certification can accelerate decarbonization, strengthen sustainable procurement, and mobilize investment in low-carbon infrastructure worldwide.

Expert Discussion

Designing the Infrastructure the Climate Needs: AI, Carbon and the Future of Engineering 

November 10, 2026, 16:30 – 17:30(TRT) 

How can infrastructure decarbonization move from ambition to delivery? This session explores two practical pathways: accelerating renewable energy deployment through digital engineering and reducing construction emissions with AI-powered workflows. Discover how real-time embodied carbon analysis helps teams compare design alternatives, balance carbon and cost, and make more sustainable decisions from the earliest project stages.
