PH cement makers set 2050 decarbonization plan

MANILA, Philippines – Philippine cement manufacturers have adopted a long-term roadmap to cut carbon emissions by increasing alternative fuel use and reducing reliance on carbon-intensive clinker through 2050. Under the Philippine Cement and Concrete Industry Decarbonization Roadmap, the Cement Manufacturers Association of the Philippines (CeMAP) aims to nearly triple alternative fuel use to 36 percent by 2050 from 13 percent in 2024. Meanwhile, CeMAP aims to cut clinker content to 58 percent by 2050 from 75 percent in 2024. Clinker, a by-product when heating limestone and clay, is the largest source of carbon dioxide emissions in cement manufacturing, accounting for about […]...
