Dan Rennie, CEO of LEILAC: Using Calix’s novel process enhancement technology to deliver a step change in the cost, and efficiency of capturing CO₂ emissions, for the cement and lime industries, Dan Rennie, CEO of Leilac spearheaded the development and coordination of the first and second Leilac projects. With 3 quarters of the built environment needed by 2050 still to be constructed, modelling indicates 1.4 Gtons of CO2 per year will need to be captured. The success of the projects and potential of this technology has led to the creation of Leilac as a standalone company offering a promising solution to combat this hard to abate sector.
