The SCAUT - Swiss Center of Applied Underground Technologies Partner Event on “Sustainabability in underground construction” has gathered many professionals in the innovations at the Hagerbach Test Gallery.

The event started with presentations by the various new partners of SCAUT from material technology to green energy, hosted by Veronika Petschen, like AB Tunnelling, Woertz, Peep Siitam, Connect Com, JES.

After that, we got more insides about the newly created SubSpace Energy Hub by Dr. Michael Kompatscher. Mr Dimitrios Terzis of MeduSoil Ltd made us familiar with a project on CERN – Recycle, Reinvent, Revalorise – Proof of Concept developed for CERN - which was developed together with other partners on reusing the excavation materials created by the future circular collider.

It was also interesting to find out what companies like Implenia represented by Rolf Wagenbach, MÜLLER-STEINAG Gruppe by Adrian Forrer and Bekaert by Benoit De Rivaz do to reach the sustainability targets in construction.
