52 BEST PRACTICES TOWARDS ENERGY EFFICIENCY The cement industry and its clinker production is under continuous pressure of fuel cost reduction and reduction of CO2 emission. India, being the second largest cement producer in the world uses coal as primary fuel for production of clinker. Cement plant having captive power plant for operational electricity requirement also use coal as primary fuel for power generation. Cost Introduction of energy in cement production shares above 50% of the cost of production. The finite nature of global fossil fuel resources, high prices and most importantly, their damaging effect on the environment underscore the need to develop alternative sources for many industrial systems that rely on fossil fuels.
