Lifecycle Carbon

Calera has the potential to reduce more than 100% of carbon dioxide emissions from the emitter.

Net emissions are calculated as the net capture of flue gas from the power plant (at least 70%), minus the emissions coming from the Calera process and the mining and transport of raw materials, plus the carbon dioxide avoided by the process:

Every ton of SCM or cement replacement produced by Calera avoids the release of approximately a ton of carbon dioxide that would otherwise be emitted by the traditional manufacturing of Portland Cement (calcination).
