can expect to encounter should they decide to utilize biomass energy in their operations. Mugher Cement plant is a large, state-owned cement factory located 105 km west of Addis Ababa. Currently, the plant produces 900,000 tonnes of cement per year - Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) and Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC) –
The cost of energy as part of the total production costs in the cement industry is significant, warranting attention for energy efficiency to improve the bottom line. Historically, energy intensity has declined, although more recently energy intensity seems to have stabilized with the gains.
The per-ton cement cost at such a plant is between $35 and $40. This future is not far off. Our analysis shows that pursuing digitization and sustainability levers are key to significantly boosting productivity and efficiency of a typical cement plant (Exhibit 1). The result is a margin gain of $4 to $9 per ton of cement, 2.
Energy efficiency (EE) does not comprise a single market; it covers measures in a diverse range of end-user sectors, end-use equipment and technologies and over a very large number of small, dispersed projects represented by a wide range of decision makers.
Energy Efficiency. This report summarizes the outcomes of the CAC study and is based on a more comprehensive consultant's report that includes detailed recommendations prepared for the CAC.1 This analysis of energy efficiency performance in the cement sector represents a broad and
The direct CO2 intensity of cement production increased 0.5% per year during 2014-18. To get on track with the SDS, a 0.8% annual decline is necessary to 2030. Sharper focus is needed in two key areas: reducing the clinker-to-cement ratio (including through greater uptake of blended cements) and deploying innovative technologies (including CCUS).
UltraTech Cement has set a target to reduce its CO 2 emissions by 25% from its 2005 – 2006 level by 2021. The company is also working on CO 2 reduction strategies including energy efficiency, alternative fuels, WHR, renewable energy and reducing its clinker ratio.
