en.Wedoany.com Reported - Australian engineering company Worley has signed a non-exclusive owner's engineering general services agreement with building materials producer Holcim to provide engineering support for the latter's cement plant carbon capture projects in the European Union and the United Kingdom. The agreement covers 14 carbon capture projects, eight of which have received support from the EU Innovation Fund.

Under the agreement, Worley will provide multi-site engineering supervision, project management, and engineering integration services to support these carbon capture projects throughout their lifecycle, from early development to execution. Holcim is accelerating its cement production decarbonization strategy, aiming to capture approximately 5 million tons of CO2 annually from 2030, achieving a target of producing 8 million tons of near-zero cement per year.

The cement industry is one of the most challenging sectors to decarbonize, with process-related carbon emissions accounting for approximately 7% to 8% of global total emissions. Holcim's carbon capture project network in Europe spans multiple countries, including Germany, Poland, Belgium, France, and Romania. The company currently holds the largest portfolio of large-scale carbon capture projects funded by the EU.

Worley has extensive engineering management experience in the energy and industrial sectors. The signing of this agreement will promote the large-scale deployment of Holcim's carbon capture technology in Europe, providing engineering support for the low-carbon transformation of the cement industry.
