Paris is a world leader in perfect patisserie, haute couture, iconic landmarks, and ....gatherings of Power Industry professionals? For those of us in the Transmission & Distribution industry, Paris is home to the renowned CIGRE Paris Session, the leading global event for power system expertise, and the biennial culmination of CIGRE's 2-year cyclical program fostering collaboration between power system professionals around the world.   Burns & McDonnell's own Alexander D. Pagnotta, PhD and Lyndsey Covert, PE will share a timely topic during the Poster Sessions at the Paris Session 2024. They propose an intentional, consistent decision making framework for integrating lower-embodied carbon materials in new infrastructure projects to meet regional and global sustainability and climate goals. It is crucial for utilities to consider both sustainability and feasibility for long-term, practical solutions that can support prioritization of sustainable alternatives to traditional, standardized materials. Catch Alex and Lindsey at the Paris Session in August to see how you can implement A Framework for Sustainability-centric Decision Making in the Selection of Construction Materials for Power System Projects! #cigre #Sustainability #Engineering #Infrastructure #OneCalifornia
