Cost of cement clinker with and without CO2 capture (CEMCAP)
The cost of making a tonne of clinker, the main ingredient of cement, in one modelled European cement plant without capturing its CO2 (62.6 euros) and with each of six capture technologies (93.0 to 120.0 euros), all on the same prices, as the CEMCAP project published it.

What it covers
- Geography
- A modelled European reference cement plant
- Basis
- One modelled best-available-technology European cement plant (3,000 tonnes of clinker a day, defined by ECRA), without CO2 capture and with each of six capture technologies, on one set of prices: coal 3 euros per gigajoule, electricity 58.1 euros per megawatt-hour, 8% discount rate, 91.3% capacity factor, all costs in 2014 euros, no carbon tax. The reference plant's direct cost is based on IEAGHG estimates. Capture covers most but not all of the plant's emissions. The period is the price base year (2014); the article was published in 2019.
