Vancouver-based climatetech startup CURA has emerged from stealth with plans to build a pilot plant to demonstrate its low-carbon cement technology. The company’s electrochemical process splits limestone into lime and a pure stream of CO₂ before it enters the kiln, cutting emissions by up to 85 percent.
Led by CEO Erin Bobicki, former VP at Brimstone, CURA’s founding team includes CTO Phil De Luna and UBC researcher Sabrina Scott. The company’s retrofit-friendly process could help global producers decarbonize without overhauling infrastructure, positioning Canada as a leader in cement innovation. CURA joins CDL’s Climate Stream in Paris.
