Energy Efficiency and CO2 Emissions - Prospective Scenarios for the Cement Industry
This document, prepared under the auspices of the SET-Plan Information System (SETIS), aims to assess the current role of technological innovation in improving energy efficiency and reducing CO2 emissions in the cement industry, the foreseeable technological developments and their market potential. The results for the baseline scenario show an improvement in the thermal energy efficiency and the CO2 emissions per tonne of clinker of around of 10% and 4% in 2030 compared to the level of 2006. However, the insensitivity of the alternative scenarios to higher CO2 and fuel prices prove that the large number of retrofits economically feasible in the base line scenario leave little room for any additional improvements in the industry.
