Our ‘Dispersed non-metallic reinforcement for energy efficient manufacturing of precast concrete’ project has been awarded @ESNZ funding as part of the Industrial Energy Efficiency Accelerator, #IEEA Phase 4.
 
FP McCann are working with B9 Solutions, the National Composites Centre and Queen's University Belfast to test a new fibre technology for reinforcing precast concrete, with the aim to save on energy use in manufacture as well as improving productivity.
 
The IEEA supports industrial-scale demonstrations of energy and/or resource efficiency innovations with the objective to cut carbon emissions. It was launched in 2017 and it has awarded a total of £16.5m in grant funding, supporting 31 projects. 
The programme is managed by @the Carbon Trust, in partnership with @Jacobs and @Innovate UK KTN.
