CO2 emission reduction

in the cement sector

Cement Sustainability Initiative (CSI)

• The CSI is a voluntary, CEO-led initiative

of the leading companies in the global

cement business.

• The CSI provides a platform for

cooperation, working under the auspices

of the World Business Council for

Sustainable Development (WBCSD)

• The CSI aims to be the partner of choice

for international stakeholders.

What gets measured

gets done…

• Customized protocol on the basis

of the reference GHG protocol

developed by WBCSD and WRI

– Version 3 issued in 2011

– English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean

languages

• Guarantees that all CSI companies

report according to the same

methodology

– Sector indicator

• Available for download on the CSI

website

– Go beyond CSI

Getting the Numbers Right (GNR)

• The most comprehensive database on energy and CO2 emissions of

any sector activity

• Managed by a third party – anti-trust compliant

• Ensures a regular, accurate reporting (required by CSI Charter)

• Piloting tool for the companies

• Baseline for any target setting activity or any market-based measure

Emissions reduction levers:

• Energy efficiency

• Alternative fuels

• Clinker substitution

• CCS

A WBCSD-led movement as the voice of business on sustainability issues • Building up towards the UNFCCC COP21 meeting in Paris (Dec 2015)

• Elaborating sectoral statement of ambition and an action plan of technical solutions to reduce CO2 emissions through

partnerships

• The CSI is coordinating input from the cement sector

Low Carbon Technology Partnership Initiative (LCTPi) – Cement

Ambition: Scale up emission reduction in the range of 20-25% CO2 in 2030

compared to business as usual

Key partners:

International Energy Agency (IEA), International Finance Corporation (IFC),

national trade associations

Scaling up coverage and

implementation ofthe CSI

tools (GNR, technology

roadmaps) globally, with a

focus on China Scaling up use of

alternative fuels

Enhancing energy

efficiency of the cement

manufacturing process

Reducing

clinker / cement

ratio

Engaging the full value

chain to maximize avoided

emissions by usage of

concrete

Developing new

cement clinkers

with lower

energy &

calcination

requirements

Evaluating cross-sectoral initiatives to

scale up capture, use & storage of carbon

11

Partnerships

• Identify the barriers for scaling-up implementation

• Identify the various stakeholders potentially helpful

• Set-up partnerships and associated action plans

12

• CSI can be the leading organization in

implementing the LCTPi action plan

– Data exist and some solutions are identified

– New subjects need to be explored

• Avoided emissions throughout the value chain

• New cements development

• Cross sectoral cooperation must be enhanced

(circular economy)

– Waste from other sectors can be input for the

cement sector

– CCS/CCU
