Can cement clinker production be fully electrified? SaltX Technology and Holcim have strengthened their partnership to advance electrified cement manufacturing, with the ambition of enabling Europe’s first fully electrified cement plant by 2028. The collaboration combines SaltX’s plasma-based technology for electrified calcination and sintering with Holcim’s industrial expertise. Large-scale technology and material testing is planned at the Electric Calcination Research Center in Hofors, Sweden, during 2026, followed by further work toward industrial-scale clinker production without fossil fuels. This partnership illustrates how electrification could become an important additional pathway for reducing process-related emissions in cement manufacturing.
