HeidelbergCement
HeidelbergCement's Norcem plant in Brevik, Norway, has had its investment approved by the Norwegian parliament for a full-scale carbon capture facility. The carbon capture and storage (CCS) project looks to capture 400,000 tons of carbon dioxide per year, including permanent storage - marking it the "first industrial-scale CCS project at a cement production plant in the world."
The company looks to begin construction of the facility as soon as possible with the goal of starting the collection process in three years' time (by 2024) - a 50% cut of emissions. This follows the earlier announcement of the HeidelbergCement receiving an A rating on the CDP Climate Change A List, the second year in a row for the company.
