Zero Emission Construction Sites

The CoP Zero Emission Construction Sites is led by the City of Oslo.

Lifting European Construction Machinery out of the Fossil Age

The Norwegian Mission to the EU, together with ZERO and Bellona Europa, organizes a seminar on how to accelerate the transition to zero-emission construction machinery. Often an overlooked source of emissions, these machines also offer a major opportunity for rapid climate action and improved air quality.
