India’s Plan on Reducing CO2 in Cement Construction
Jun 26
7% of the CO2 emissions in India is directly related to cement construction. It is therefore important to adopt green alternative directions that will reduce the emissions, beyond the scope of those that are already in place. The IEA roadmap design and recommendations offers the use of a number of technologies to include carbon capture and storage, waste heat recovery and alternative fuels. This also encourages the limitation of growth to double or worst case scenario, 240%. The plan will save this area around 375 petajoules of energy by the year 2050, which is equivalent to the current energy use annually by Bulgaria and Sri Lanka. There is an important aspect of support for the plan by International Finance Corporation which includes financing and tools for the roadmap feasibility studies for selected plants, to encourage low-carbon technology.
