The industry must prioritize supplementary
cementitious materials, efficiency strategies
and bioenergy now, while advancing
CCUS, electrification and fuel shifts for
long-term reductions.
–The emission intensity has remained relatively stable over the past five years, largely
due to slow adoption of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). However,
large industrial-scale projects are in the pipeline, and there is momentum across
the entire sector to cut emissions.
–CCUS and material-efficiency strategies are expected to reduce around 75% of the
cement sector’s emissions. However, significant investments are needed to scale
them effectively.
