#13. Electrifying the Job Site: Decarbonizing Construction, Ft. Jolene McLaughlin & Matthew Jackson
Electrification is emerging as one of the most promising paths to decarbonizing construction, but what does that actually mean on site? In this episode, Rory Smith is joined by Jolene McLaughlin, VP of Climate & Sustainability at EllisDon, and Matthew Jackson, Senior Director of Marketing at Hilti North America, to explore how electrified tools, charging infrastructure, and connected data systems are reshaping construction operations. They unpack why construction-phase emissions are often underestimated, how battery-powered heavy equipment is closing the performance gap with traditional tools, and what it will take to scale electrification across complex job sites.
