Cement Manufacturers Association

Conclusion Presently, the path is towards shaping the industry to reach the highest point of the curve of sustainability vs time period. Cement manufacturers are taking a big leap for attaining the goals established by various associations and global bodies. The positive aspects of decarbonisation of industry, capacity utilisation, productivity enhancements, and controlled emissions are taking a big leap toward sustainability. The Indian cement industry has been working on the issue of its GHG emissions and has brought down the CO 2 emission factor considerably. However, it requires more effort to achieve the goals of Cement and Concrete Roadmap 2050 for the Net Zero Concrete. The leading cement and concrete companies in India have accepted the goal to achieve Net Zero Concrete by 2050 and are committed to fully contributing to building a sustainable tomorrow. However, the industry requires increased efforts for newer technologies like Renewable Energy, Novel Cements, Carbon Capture and Storage/Utilisation. Cement technology suppliers are almost in the process of rolling out these technologies with the main plants. KHD, has done advanced work in this field and has solutions like LC cement. As part of Made in India concept, KHD is also promoting more manufacturing in Indian workshops with improved quality which can aim at efficient reliability of the equipment. All these steps will surely make the Indian Cement Industry bloom into achieving the roadmap of carbon reduction, a green environment with increased capacity to meet the demand in tandem with government plans. 12
