Cement factory pauses carbon capture

Cement manufacturer Heidelberg is pausing its investment in capturing carbon dioxide at its factory on Gotland.

The reason is that the company has not received any government support, via Industriklivet, for the project.

"Without the state's continued support for implementation, there are currently insufficient conditions to realize the project in Sweden," says Karin Comstedt Webb, Vice President of Heidelberg Materials Sweden, in a press release.

Cement production on Gotland is a major emitter of carbon dioxide.
