Use this record when

The decision this case can inform

Use section-level energy measures to manage a coordinated improvement program.

Evidence scope

Company submission hosted by the Clean Energy Ministerial; not independently verified by hosting. Results apply only to the stated equipment, conditions and observation period.

Source-supported facts

What the public record actually establishes

2 sourced points
  1. F1

    Energy reviews accompanied grinding, maintenance, idle-running and combustion improvements.

  2. F2

    Company submission reports total electricity intensity 71.7→65.7 kWh/t cement; grinding 30.6→27.5; thermal intensity 703→682 kcal/kg clinker.

Structured interpretation

Facts and reported results are kept separate from the lesson a plant may choose to test.

01

Operating context

The plant coordinated energy reduction across production areas.

02

Intervention or finding

Energy reviews accompanied grinding, maintenance, idle-running and combustion improvements.

03

Documented result

Company submission reports total electricity intensity 71.7→65.7 kWh/t cement; grinding 30.6→27.5; thermal intensity 703→682 kcal/kg clinker.

04

Plant interpretation

Use section-level energy measures to manage a coordinated improvement program.

05

Transfer boundary

CEM hosts the submission; hosting is not independent verification. Measures were bundled, so one intervention cannot take credit for the total.

Before applying the lesson

Questions to verify at your plant

These are decision checks, not operating instructions. Resolve them through local risk assessment, technical review, and authorization.

  1. 01

    Preserve cement versus clinker denominators and account for product mix and utilization.

  2. 02

    What equipment, materials and operating conditions differ at your plant?

  3. 03

    What baseline and follow-up evidence would establish whether this change works locally?
