Cooling cities
Revilo®, winner of the VINCI 2024 Environment Awards’ top prize, was developed by VINCI Construction with scientists from lab recherche environnement and the AgroParisTech engineering school. This comprehensive solution lowers temperatures in cities by combining varied approaches including rainwater channelling, vegetation management and surfacings.
of the asphalt and aggregates from work carried out across VINCI Autoroutes’ motorways in 2024 was recovered in a variety of ways, and 48% of it was reused on the business line’s own worksites.
Progress towards net zero airports
Toulon Hyères was the first airport in France to reach Level 5 – the highest in Airports Council International (ACI)’s Airport Carbon Accreditation (ACA) programme –, certifying that it has achieved and maintained net zero emissions. By the end of 2024, VINCI Airports had reduced its direct emissions by 53% from 2018 levels with the decarbonisation programmes under way throughout its network.
Low-carbon and recycled materials
VINCI Construction used 60% low-carbon (Exegy®) concrete on its worksites in France for the first time in 2024 – a milestone on its road to 90% low-carbon concrete worldwide by 2030.
Ogêo, a new line of highly technical, low-carbon aggregates developed by VINCI Construction, combining primary resources (from quarries) and secondary resources (from deconstruction operations) won a VINCI Environment Award in the New Materials category.
