Cemex Ventures has announced a new investment in Waste to Energy Advanced Solutions (WtEnergy), reinforcing its commitment to advancing the circular economy and accelerating clean energy production. The move builds on the success of the CLYNGAS project and follows WtEnergy securing a €4.4 million grant from the European Union’s Innovation Fund.

WtEnergy specialises in converting non?recyclable waste and biomass into low?carbon syngas, clean hydrogen and other bioproducts. The technology has strong potential to support Cemex’s global cement and clinker operations by integrating alternative, lower?carbon energy sources.

The increased investment reflects growing recognition of WtEnergy’s progress, including its leadership of the HYIELD project at Cemex’s Alcanar plant in Spain. Backed by a €10 million Horizon Europe grant, the project focuses on producing high?purity clean hydrogen from bio?residues.

This latest step supports Cemex’s Future in Action programme and its ambition to achieve net?zero CO? emissions by 2050, with alternative fuels playing a key role in its decarbonisation roadmap.
