Clean energy and decarbonisation
At Costain, we recognise the pressing need for the UK to increase the pace of decarbonisation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
The UK has committed to achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050. To meet this target, we must make significant changes in the way we heat our homes, power industry, generate electricity and fuel our vehicles.
The Costain solution
Our engineering and consultancy experts do this by shaping strategy, defining technology solutions, complex project delivery and asset optimisation.
