Heidelberg Materials Edmonton Cement Plant

Heavy industries can be challenging to decarbonize as their production methods are often very energy intensive and their facilities are very large. As the front runner on the path to carbon neutrality and circular economy in the building materials industry, Heidelberg Materials is working on sustainable building materials and solutions for the future.

Heidelberg Materials cement manufacturing plant in Edmonton is striving to become the world’s first carbon neutral cement plant. Carbon Capture Canada delegates will receive a guided tour of the Heidelberg Materials’ Edmonton Cement plant and see two operating CO2 capture pilot plants informing the design of the capture process which is anticipated to capture up to 95% of the plant’s CO₂ emissions, and those of the integrated combined heat and power plant.
