Holcim Latinoamérica to achieve 18% renewable power use in February 2023

South/Central America: Holcim Latinoamérica says that it expects to use 18% renewable power across its operations in February 2023, compared to 8% throughout 2022. The regional unit of Holcim says that it will increase its share of renewable power to 25% by the end of 2023. It is committed to a target of 60% renewables by 2030. Holcim Latinoamérica's operations span Argentina, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Nicaragua and Mexico.

Earlier in February 2023, Holcim Nicaragua commenced construction of a 3.38MW solar power plant in Nagarote, León Department. The producer said that the solar power plant's contribution to the national grid will cover 40% of its consumption in its cement operations there.

Holcim's Latin America regional head Oliver Osswald said “Our world is in constant change from population growth, urbanisation and the climate challenge. That is why, at Holcim, we are determined to put our best foot forward to accelerate low carbon circular construction."
