About this project
The description is as the source gives it.
The Low-Carbon Calcined Clay Cement Demonstration project, led by Summit Materials, Inc., plans to construct four new calcination facilities in Maryland, Georgia, and Texas to produce low-carbon calcined clay as an alternative to high-emitting limestone-based cement. This multi-site approach demonstrates the viability and replicability of the technology across diverse U.S. geographies, considering variations in clay sources and cement product availability. The project aims to prevent 1.1 million metric tons of CO2 emissions per year while meeting 2% of the projected U.S. cement demand by 2030.
Statuses, countries and reductions are as the public source states them, and may be out of date.
