Three C Network Conference 2026
At the international Three C Network Conference 2026 "From Cultivation to Construction - Contributing to the Circular Carbon Economy" from April 15 to 16 at the University of Kassel, experts from research, practice and politics will examine how agricultural biomass can become the basis of a circular carbon economy.
How can European municipalities become more climate-friendly? One promising approach is the circular carbon economy (CCE). Local circular systems in which citizens, businesses, political decision-makers and NGOs work together create practical and immediate solutions that reduce the carbon footprint in communities.
For around 15 years, the THREE-C network has been working on methods to utilize residual biomass in a circular carbon economy. The current project Carbon Conversion Cycles - From Cultivation to Construction (C5) links agricultural and horticultural raw material production with circular carbon applications in the construction industry. Rural and urban economic areas are connected. This makes it possible to create new circular value chains, reduce emissions, increase rural incomes and address environmental problems.
The conference is the prelude to further approaches for converting residual biomass into various qualities of building materials. It offers technical impulses, interdisciplinary workshops and a hybrid exhibition of products, projects, tools, CCE systems and CEE applications.
The conference is organized in cooperation with the Faculty of Architecture, Urban Planning and Landscape Planning | Research Platform Building Art Invention, the Faculty of Organic Agricultural Sciences | Grassland Science and Renewable Resources, the Laboratory for Sustainability Issues SDG+ LAB and the THREE C European Network for the Circular Carbon Economy. The event is funded by Interreg.
