Brazil: Members of the Brazilian National Cement Industry Association (SNIC) have committed to a 34% reduction in the CO2 emissions of their cement production to 375kg/t by 2050 from 564kg/t in 2019. Ten cement producers including Cimento Tupi, CSN Cimentos, InterCement and Votorantim signed the commitment. With the industry's forecast rate of growth in cement production capacity, this will result in possible total CO2 emissions of 45Bnt in 2050 compared to 36.7Bnt in 2020.
Planned CO2 emissions reduction investments before 2032 are US$637m across the industry.
