Several of the previous webinars in NAPA’s Road to Zero series have discussed the GHG emissions reductions associated with readily available technologies and practices. Although substantial reductions can be achieved, it is clear that getting to net zero will require the development of new mix production technologies and low carbon materials, and widespread implementation of these practices, akin to no less than a “moon shot” for the asphalt pavement community. This webinar explores the long-term research and implementation efforts that will be needed over the coming decades to achieve net zero GHG emissions across the asphalt pavement industry.

Takeaways:

• Understand the immediate questions the asphalt industry needs to answer to continue setting benchmarking targets.
• Explore materials and mix design methodologies that could allow the industry to move toward net zero.
• Understand the current gaps in quantifying the current emissions of the US asphalt industry.
