State and barriers for
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

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
