First Industry-specific Roadmap Examines Emissions Reductions in Cement Industry

ACEEE - The Cement Technology Roadmap [PDF], released today by the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) and the International Energy Agency (IEA), outlines the path that the public and private sectors should take to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions associated with the cement industry. It is the first such report to focus on a specific industry sector, and includes energy efficiency investments as a primary means of achieving the emissions reductions that the industry is capable of achieving, namely about 18 percent below 2005 levels by 2050.
