Holcim invests in new energy projects at Mannersdorf plant

Written by Global Cement staff 01 October 2024

Austria: Holcim is set to significantly reduce its carbon footprint with the installation of a new clinker cooler system and a large-scale photovoltaic system at its Mannersdorf cement plant. The clinker cooler project is valued at approximately €10m, and aims to cut heat consumption and reduce CO₂ emissions by 18,000t/yr. Completion is expected in early 2025. The solar project will be fully operational by 2025, and will cover approximately 15% of the plant’s energy needs and reduce CO₂ emissions by an additional 12,700t/yr. 2.7MW of solar panels were erected at the site of the former chimney on the plant’s premises.

Plant manager Helmut Reiterer said "Sustainability requires decarbonisation, i.e. continuously reducing the CO₂ emissions from our production activities. We are placing an investment focus on energy-efficient production by modernising our machinery, but also on expanding green energy."
