Vattenfall and Cemvision have signed a commercial agreement to supply near-zero-carbon cement for onshore wind infrastructure across Europe from 2028.
Cemvision’s Re-ment Massive product will be prioritised for use by subcontractors in Vattenfall’s projects and has the potential to cut CO₂ emissions by up to 95 per cent, said the companies.
The partners added that deliveries will come from Cemvision’s first industrial-scale production plant and follow a 2024 Letter of Intent.
“This agreement with Cemvision is accelerating a key market in the net-zero transition, and we’re proud to contribute to that shift,” said Ulrika Ritzen, head of onshore wind at Vattenfall. “For Vattenfall, it means reducing carbon emissions from wind farms across Europe while optimising the economics of our projects. This collaboration strengthens our competitiveness and supports our long-term sustainability goals.”
Cemvision chief executive Oscar Hallen stated: “This long-term agreement for the supply of our near-zero cement is a foundational step in transforming the cement market, and we are proud to take the partnership with Vattenfall to the next level. Our cement is one of the most cost-efficient ways to decarbonize construction. Moving from pilot to commercial action is how the transition becomes real.”
Vattenfall said the deal supports its pledge that 10 per cent of cement and concrete purchases should be near zero emission by 2030 and creates opportunities for wider collaboration beyond onshore wind.
The company also stated the agreement makes it possible to reach at least 20 per cent near-zero purchases by 2028 and reinforces its target to cut supply chain emissions by 50 per cent by 2030.
