Southwire & Levidian collaborate to decarbonise cable production

British climate tech leader Levidian and leading wire and cable production company Southwire have joined forces to explore options for decarbonising cable production in North America.

This collaboration will see the installation of Levidian’s LOOP technology at Southwire where it will capture carbon from methane to produce a hydrogen-rich blend gas. The companies will also be working on useful applications for hydrogen and graphene, which can be used as a high-quality additive to increase the performance of materials as wide-ranging as concrete, batteries and plastics.

Levidian CEO John Hartley said, “This collaboration with Southwire marks an important first step in our expansion into North America and our mission to help decarbonize some of the important sectors on the planet.”
