Cemex has been selected to receive funding from the EU’s Innovation Fund for a pioneering CO2 Capture Project at our Rüdersdorf Cement Plant in Germany.
Known as CO2LLECT, the project aims to capture 1.3 million tonnes of CO2 from Rüdersdorf’s Cement production annually, in a consortium with Linde.
It is our largest planned carbon capture scheme to date, and will decarbonise the plant by 2030 Sergio Menendez, President of Cemex EMEA, commented: “An important component of our Future in Action strategy is to develop breakthrough decarbonisation solutions for our industry to reach Net Zero. Our project at Rüdersdorf is one of them and has the hallmarks and credentials to make a significant contribution to the decarbonisation of the cement industry.”
Across its global operations, Cemex is implementing a series of high-profile new projects designed for the capture, utilisation and storage of CO?, widely referred to as CCUS, supporting its Future in Action strategy. Find out more HERE.
