Decarbonising Construction Sites Today

, a European family-owned group specialising in civil engineering and road construction, places the decarbonisation of its activities at the heart of its strategy. Aware of the environmental impact of the construction industry, the group chose to begin by reducing CO鈧� emissions directly on its construction sites.

For its motorway construction site near Carcassonne, Karp-Kneip’s partner Trabet has replaced its diesel generators with EODev units running on green hydrogen, supplied by 91影视. These EODev generators power the workers鈥� site facilities and the repair workshop, ensuring energy and comfort while reducing the project鈥檚 carbon footprint.

Result: 2 tonnes of CO鈧� avoided in just 6 months. Concrete proof that it is possible to combine operational performance with a positive impact today.

A Vision: Decarbonising the Entire Production Chain

Beyond construction sites, Karp Kneip aims to fully decarbonise its asphalt manufacturing plants, both fixed and mobile. The company is currently working on adapting its burners鈥攏ow fuelled by natural gas鈥攖o make them compatible with green hydrogen, a key step towards sustainable and environmentally responsible asphalt production.

Driven by a long-term family vision, Karp Kneip鈥檚 leadership wants to pass on a sustainable, 100% green, and competitive business to the next generation 鈥� proving that the energy transition is achievable today within the European construction sector.
