Cobar expresses interest in EvoZero cement product with Heidelberg Materials Italia

26 November 2024

Italy: Construction company Cobar has signed an expression of interest with Heidelberg Materials Italia to use its EvoZero net-zero carbon captured cement product. Cobar’s CEO Vito Matteo Barozzi signed the agreement with Heidelberg Materials Italia’s CEO Stefano Gallini. The subsidiary of Germany-based Heidelberg Materials describes Cobar as one of its main customers and said that the deal confirms the progress that low-carbon products are making in the construction market.

Heidelberg Materials launched its EvoZero cement product in late 2023 and its EvoBuild low-carbon and circular products range in early 2024. EvoZero cement will be available in two versions, depending on the customer location. EvoZero Carbon Captured Brevik will be manufactured at the Brevik cement plant in Norway, where the company has built a carbon capture unit. Elsewhere in Europe Heidelberg Materials will sell EvoZero Carbon Captured, where the cement will be manufactured at a local plant and sold with a verifiable carbon proof using mass-balancing and book-and-claim systems.

Heidelberg Materials begins CCS feasibility study at Rezzato-Mazzano plant

30 September 2024

Italy: Heidelberg Materials has launched a feasibility study at its Rezzato-Mazzano cement plant to explore a source-to-sink carbon capture and storage (CCS) solution, potentially making it the first in Italy to produce carbon-captured net-zero cement, according to the company’s press release. The aim of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of capturing CO₂ from cement production and transporting it via pipeline to the Ravenna CCS storage hub under the Adriatic Sea. Phase 1 of the Ravenna CCS project will be carried out with the help of a joint venture between Italy-based integrated energy company Eni and energy infrastructure subsidiary Snamprogetti, involving discussions between the three companies for a technical evaluation. The project aims to leverage Eni’s depleted gas fields in the Adriatic Sea, which would be converted for use as permanent CO₂ storage sites. The total storage capacity of these fields is estimated at more than 500Mt. Snam is committed to developing a pipeline network to transport CO₂ from emitters to the Ravenna CCS hub.  

Chair of the managing board of Heidelberg Materials, Dominik von Achten, said "We are excited to explore the economic feasibility of a carbon capture initiative in the Mediterranean. Our ambition at Heidelberg Materials is not only to implement a decarbonisation initiative that is highly efficient in terms of resources and energy, but also to provide an important impetus for the development of a regional CCS cluster."

Member of the managing board of Heidelberg Materials and responsible for Europe, Jon Morrish, said "With an aspired capture rate of more than 95% of our plant’s emissions, this initiative aims to explore options for industrial-scale CCS in Italy. This would enable us to supply locally produced, carbon captured net-zero cement under our evoZero brand to customers in the region."

Heidelberg Materials Italy signs sustainable energy deal

20 March 2024

Italy: Heidelberg Materials Italy, formerly Italcementi, has entered into a seven-year supply agreement with Ox2. Under the deal, Ox2 will sell up to 70% of the energy generated at the Stornarella wind farm in Foggia. The farm was developed in partnership with Nuveen Infrastructure.

The Stornarella wind farm will be constructed in 2024. Once operational, it will provide an average of 37 - 51GWh/yr of clean energy from 2025 to 2032. Nuveen Infrastructure has purchased the wind farm, which will feature six turbines with a total installed capacity of 27MW and an estimated output of 73GWh/yr.

Stefano Gallini, CEO of Heidelberg Materials Italy, said "Energy is a fundamental component of our industrial process and represents one of the main levers of decarbonisation for the entire cement sector. The electrical component can also contribute significantly to this purpose, and we have identified reliable partners like Ox2 and Nuveen to accompany us on this journey."
