Grinding is a highly energy intensive process in the cement industry. Approximately 60–70% of the total electrical energy used in a cement plant is utilized for the grinding of raw materials, coal and clinker [63]. The electrical energy consumed in cement production is approximately 110 kWh/tonne.

It sees this as part of a wider scheme to decarbonise not only its clinker production process but also a fleet of trucks, which it has already ordered (See Figure 3). Waste heat from cement production can be used to increase the yield of hydrogen. Finally, the plant will use the oxygen generated to boost efficiency in its kiln.

Cement production begins with limestone, a sedimentary rock. Once quarried, it is mixed with a silica source, such as industrial byproducts slag or fly ash, and gets fired in a kiln at 2,700 degrees Fahrenheit. What comes out of the kiln is called clinker. Cement plants grind clinker down to an extremely fine powder and mix in a few additives.
